I know that when you lay out the numbers like that, it looks like a dream situation but in my experience, in Southern California, a $100k window for everything is cutting it close. I say that from experience that costs can be worse than your worse-case scenario. I'd feel more comfortable with a $300k offer if it were me.. but if you're confident in your ability to move it in that neighborhood, it could work. Good luck!
