What's another $15,000?

Good news! We finally got an offer on the house! Yay!

Bad news! They want us to knock off ANOTHER $15,000 AND pay $2,000 in closing costs. Ummm... wtf?!?

We listed the house with a $15,000 loss... meaning that, at closing time, we are going to have to bring a minimum of $15,000 with us (plus whatever commission ends up being). This woman who made the offer wants us to take yet another $15k off the price, so that we'd end up bringing $30,000+ to closing. Uhh, yeah freaking right! We're desperate to sell but not THAT desperate... even if we could come up with $30k (which just isn't realistic). We countered and told them we'd do the $2,000 in closing costs but we wouldn't lower the price of the house. I doubt it'll go anywhere, but still... *rolls eyes*

At least we got SOME interest - even if it sucked. It's a good sign... right?
