The offer on the house has been made, the papers have been signed and the fax has been sent. I should find out by 11 AM today where I stand – I could be the owner of the house (pending a lot of other paperwork), I could be drawn into a bidding process if other potential bidders step up with an offer, or the owner could reject my offer outright (I offered $94k on a house which had an asking price of $99.9k). I’m anxious about it. It figures, I have a meeting at 11 right when I would have found out what the deal is, a meeting that’s scheduled to last 2 hours. Will I be able to concentrate in this meeting? Somehow I doubt it.
