then you did the right thing because you didnt really want it. Even getting a good deal isnt worth buying unless you really want the house. You are likely going to be there a few years so you better like it.Good houses priced well wont sell at a discount below current comps this time of year. Based upon current comps you would not have been overpaying.
For what its worth, the only comps that matter anymmore are 90 days or less. All the lenders I have seen only look back that far. They need to be current because 6 months ago could be a different market better or worse than we have right now depending upon where you are.
Take a nice vacation and go shopping in October.

Participantconfusedrenter,
it depends upon whether it has been on the market for long and whether there are other buyers. If you love the home and lose it over $5K you wont be happy. If you dont love the home getting a better deal by 5 or 10K wont feel so good in a few months if you arent happy there.July 15, 2010 at 8:00 PM #578939sdrealtor

ParticipantThese properties are comparable to the the Babbling Brook property. These interiors are more upgraded. The Babbling Brook property has a better location/lot except for the this first comp.

Obviously I’m just selecting the ones that prove my point, while there at least 4 other properties that justify the listing price or higher. I’m more of a price shopper, then a fall in love with a house kind of guy. There are too many homes in that area that fit my parameters to overpay.
