Thanks for the info and warm welcome. I will check out the resources you listed. I'm not sure about the meet-up yet but will see what I can do.

Thanks for the reply. The deal seems over at this point. The LA was, frankly, nothing more than a hurdle. She made it clear she was not happy my offer was accepted telling my agent as much (I've got the voicemail). It's been two weeks and she will not return any requests for more information. I just wanted to get a sense of the process w/o all the weird LA stuff...but you know that feeling when something isn't right but you can't pinpoint it.

Btw, this was a cash purchase. No financing/bank involvement.

Nice. So when the listing agent said; your offer is accepted and I don't know why. This doesn't make sense. I need to figure out what's going on here...And she refused to communicate with my agent for three days, I should have planned on this not going well.

Took my first leap and offered on a FNMA Homepath property. Series of events over two weeks:

Offer > multiple offer highest and best > highest and best made > FNMA counter > counter accepted > system updates shows offer accepted and under contract > LA calls saying offer accepted > 4 days later LA says it isn't accepted > phone call to FNMA they say it shows offer accepted and under contract > FNMA now says it isn't > Homepath online still shows offer accepted and under contract.

Is this normal?

Starting the process to invest. I've always wanted to and finally willing to take some risks (calculated). Looking at opportunities in WA, MO and CO (b/c I live in one and have family in the others). Just checking it out.
