Well, I had to take down the pictures of the house because it looks like we won't be buying it after all. The inspection last week revealed some problems with the foundation that we were hopeful the sellers would correct, but they rejected our request this morning and came back with an allowance for repairs that was not quite enough to satisfy our concerns. As of 12:00 noon today we exercised our buyer's option to rescind and we are back in the market. Again.
How does this relate to poker? It doesn't, really. It just sucks. But an emotional decision risks being a bad decision and financially, the house in its current condition just isn't a sound purchase, no matter how excited my fiancee and I might have been about the landscaping and rennovating projects it afforded to us.
