My news: the appraisal came in at full asking price. A big relief and a surprise, too, given the market. I priced the house according to comps, but what I felt was right, which was higher than my agent recommended. I KNOW she thought I was too high. So this was good news indeed.
However, the buyers have asked for a significant price reduction, based on that %&#%$ home inspection. I just don't believe that all those things are wrong with the house. For instance, the inspector said there was a puddle under the kitchen sink. It's completely dry!! It really is infuriating. I still have trick or two up my sleeve (note to DR Ron: don't misread that).
We shall see.
