Grrrr... I made a perfectly generous offer on a GREAT place that got turned down this morning (for one at $5000 less) over a technically. I hadn't officially opened escrow on the place I'm selling yet, even though I had multiple offers, and the seller wanted to closein 30 days. Bad, right?

Worse. Ironically, I opened escrow &*$%^! two hours later for my place at 7% over list price, and the buyer wants a 21 day escrow.

If not for a scant few hours, all three of us would have been perfect for each other. I am very annoyed. I thought buying a place was bad, but buying and selling at the same time is a nightmare -- and I have a placed that was a piece of cake to sell. (Listed only 3 days.)

Just thought I'd vent...
