    Sounds like they wanted to waive much more than 5 grand.

    I was reading this as Mark saying waiving inspection was a bad thing. (As in bad for him.)

    I'm not at all worried about a home inspection, there is nothing wrong with the house. As the builder of it, I know every single little detail about it. Everything was built to current building codes, and I pulled permits for everything I was required to. My guess is the condition, newness, and cleanliness is the reason they waived the inspection.

    They were not cash buyers, they had a pre-approval letter with a 10% down mortgage that they gave with the offer.
    We were over $25k from making a deal...if it was even within $5-10k difference, id probably cave and sign it

    I'm in the market for the first time, just got preapproved yesterday. Having a hard time convincing my gf to look outside East Greenwich though. Maybe I should strategically buy her a dirt bike first...

    Man, if this place is in your possible range, all I can say is I'm SO happy I bought a house on a beautiful piece of property. Fences make good neighbors, but out of sight AND sound make great ones.

    Can't help you convince your gf to look outside of EG, but I should add, my best friend growing up, lives next door to me, rides dirtbikes and also has 12 acres.

    Your house is awesome and worth every penny of what you're asking for it. Unless you're looking to move asap, I'd hold out for the right buyer who will appreciate the time you've put into your property.

    Thank you!
    I'm moving end of April, beginning of May, so the house will be empty soon. I don't have to sell it prior to moving, but there is a cost to carry it once I close on the new place.

    Thanks, there will be a moto party at some point

    The next month will be extremely busy, the new place closes on the 7th of April, mine closes on the 22nd of April. It'll be quite the change going from a modern spotless house, to a 195 year old home in need of some TLC...haha

    The moto trails are a given at the new place, the only question is how soon. The house upgrades take priority. I can't confirm nor deny there may be an offer on the plate for a club to come in and make a trail system, in exchange for allowing them to hold a 1 time use event there
