Have a nice house to sell in a red hot housing market. Its really that simple. Here was the chronology for us:
Friday: Broker open house; five showings after that.
Saturday: Out of house all day; shown 15 times.
Sunday: Out of house all day; shown 10 times.
Sunday night: Tell those who made offers that best offers will be accepted by 11:30 a.m. on Monday.
Monday: Best offers made by 11:30, decision as to which to accept taken by 11:45.
Wednesday: House inspection occurs.
Friday: Contracts signed by buyers and 10% deposit check forwarded to my attorney.
I am a little bit astounded by the rapidity of it all, I must say.

Congrats, RP! :-)
