Today, we made our very first offer on a home.  It was exciting and scary all at the same time. 

We offered 2.5% less than asking price.  There were a total of 10 offers, and the highest one was 5.7% OVER asking price.  Also, several offers were all cash.  How do people have all this money??  Needless to say, we were outbid.

Good first experience, but now on to bigger and better fish!  Wish us luck!
