Beyond expectations, I got a call from the real estate agent Pam this morning to say the owner has accepted our offer. I'm glad I stopped by the side of the road yesterday, because apparently an Auckland investor called after us as well. The owner decided on us getting the house since we'd actually be living here, so that's good!
Next stop, the lawyer & the agent will come up with a contract, which we'll both sign, and then we have to get the three reports made; builder, plumber, and electrician. Once everything checks out, we hand over the cash, and get the keys in return.
Exciting!
