Oh, no, Stilly. Selling a house these days is only partly about price; the other critical issue to negotiate is closing date. Most people have to sell a house to be able to buy one, so it’s common to set a seller’s condition of 60 to 90 days to closing. Consequently, when I sell this place, I jump in the car and drive to Ottawa to buy my next abode, where I will dicker with people bent on forging the next link in the massive chain reaction.
