AW CRAP!
Today I found out that about 2 weeks ago a home was sold in the area we are hoping to buy. I don't have the listed specs, but from word-of-mouth from the neighbours it is (was) exactly what my wife and I were looking for. Out of morbid curiosity I drove by it today. It is a really nice house with a really nice yard. The neighbours say it is absolutely immaculate inside. We obviously didn't get a chance to tour the inside, but the exterior is absolutely gorgeous.
The kicker is that it apparently sold for $15,000 under our maximum budget :(
Does this sort of thing happen often when looking for a new house?
