Hey guys,
I'm buying my first house, currently comparing lenders, already under contract.
Reviewing some paperwork, I noticed the House Cost was asking price, $210K. I specifically asked my realtor to offer $195K, and allow it to go up to asking if there were competing offers. All this was verbal, the only text evidence is her confirming the high $210 threshold, not the starting bid.
I signed offer paperwork with asking price on it, my bad, I didn't read the documents covering the largest financial endeavor of my life so far, I messed up big. I saw the price and assumed that was the worst case scenario, not the offer on the table.
The current owners have accepted my offer at asking price and moved out. Am I SOL? It's late, I plan on talking to my realtor first thing tomorrow.
