ParticipantI suppose it depends on how desparate the seller is, and how much you are willing to overpay for the house. I think it is unrealistic to expect someone to accept a “low” offer with a home sale contingency. Sellers in that price range will consider any realistic offer a low offer. Homes in that price range are seriously levitating right now. That could change in the next 6 months, but I think it will take longer than that.

ParticipantI live a couple of MILES from a high school, but it is a fairly straight shot as the crow flies between the stadium and my neighborhood. We can CLEARLY hear the PA system from my house during games. If it is a particularly good game, you can even heard the crowds cheering. I can’t even imagine living right next door.

Participant[quote=CBad]Wow, way off topic people.
Sad story but I’m sorry, the dad was 100% at fault. He crossed after the arms were lowered, she didn’t have a helmet on, he failed to look both ways or listen, etc. You have to be pretty darn unaware of your surroundings if you can’t see or hear a trolley that’s close enough to hit you and you don’t have enough time to get out of the way. As a parent you are responsible for your young child. Don’t say they are ‘precious’ with your words. You show that they are precious by protecting them. You just don’t take stupid chances like that. Unfortunately he’ll pay for his stupidity with grief for the rest of his life.[/quote]
I completely agree, CBad. My youngest starts kindergarten this year. The idea of biking around the barrier arm across trolley tracks with her – that is just nuts. If you want to take chances with your own life, whatever. But your children depend on your judgement to keep them safe. That poor child paid for his stupidity with her life.
