Well, I tried telling you about it. I posted, it was on Facebook, my website, and the MLS. But you missed out. We had 5 showings and 5 offers. We are under contract and going before the judge on the 17th to see if we can get this sale approved!It'll be a long time before another opportunity to purchase a fixer-upper in Deer Brooke comes up. I tried and I'll try again next time!
