one step closer

Well the big estate sale is over.  I won't know the financial results for about ten days. Many things sold but many others didn't so now next phase - some things have gone to a consignment seller, many things will be given to charity, and finally a bunch will be hauled away as trash.  Sooner or later most of the rooms in this house will be empty or nearly so.  Coincidentally, as the staff finished clearing out the basement so the new carpet can go in, a couple came to see the house - a spur of the moment decision.  Their Realtor wasn't with them so I showed them around. I just heard from my Realtor that they are supposed to be submitting an offer.  We will look at it tomorrow. If this one doesn't work there are 5 more showings scheduled tomorrow and three on Monday, so sooner or later I'm confident an offer will come through.
An interesting side note, the dehumidifier that I bought and plugged in on Thursday after a looker commented about the dank smell in the basement garage has been humming away ever since and the potential buyer today commented on how nice and fresh the basement smelled, and it does.  I'm thinking that was $200 well spent.
