House is still for sale...Interested?

The "buyers" haven't bought the house...grr...I know that it was really too good to be true (to sell the house for more than we thought without even putting it up for sale), but I sure was hoping that they would have gone through with the deal. Let's not jinx it, they might still buy the place, but we haven't heard anything from the realtor, so we're not counting our windfall yet.

We decided to get a little proactive and put the house up FSBO (for sale by owner) this weekend, we put a bunch of signs out, hope that drives some traffic. We've also decided to up the price again, heh, hope also that that doesn't drive people away! We'll see.

I did a bunch of landscaping, yard maintenance this weekend, trying to make the place "drive by pretty", the trees really like all of this rain we've been getting and have to be clipped all the time it seems. We've got chilean mesquites all over the house and they're growing like mad. I cut about 4 wheelbarrows full of clippings off of the trees (4 trees are about 10 feet tall, two are about 5 feet tall).

I did also manage to get all of the solar lights out as well, they've been sitting in the shed for ages (AGES), now they're in use and all the way down the driveway as well as the walk to the shed.

With the info tube that we bought, we get a "webspace" listing, so we'll be updating that over the next few days, adding information, pictures, half-truths, etc. I think the url is: HOME FOR SALE, please remember that I just now created that, it doesn't have pictures yet, nor any descriptions, as I said, we'll be updating that over the next few days.
