Anybody done this? It seems to be unnecessarily complicated & unorganized.
It was a house that didn't sell at the courthouse auction last January & went back to the mortgage company. As soon as it hit the market, we made an offer & it was accepted. Then we had to wait for paperwork that is sort of backdated to when they accepted & it gives us 72 hours from the 15th to get our earnest money in (we didn't even get the paperwork from their listing agent until the afternoon of the 16th) and signed docs back to them. All sorts of verbiage in the contract that if we don't get it in, they can back out.
Not normally a conspiracy nut, but do they have a higher offer & trying to bypass us? Is this normal?
