Crazy House Stuff

We went back and looked at a house for the second time tonight. And we put in an offer! There are some weird things going on with the sale of our house in Palatine right now so our offer is contingent on that closing. We've had an offer on the Palatine home and we've accepted it. The inspection is done and we've agreed on that stuff. Pretty much everything is good to go with that sale except...apparently our association is suing a neighboring association regarding some drainage issues. Because it is a lawsuit we have to disclose this information to the seller which gives them an opportunity to back out of the deal. If they back out, then Paragon (the relocation company) sort of backs out too regarding their involvement with the house. Meaning they won't acquire our home from us and we are sort of left on our own for selling the house, they don't want to be involved. That would be incredibly unfortunate. If the buyer doesn't back out then we should be officially done dealing with the Palatine house very soon. So while we are excited about our potential new home we are nervously awaiting the buyers response to this issue (hopefully sooner rather than later). In our minds, if we were the buyer we would continue with the sale, but we aren't the buyer and you just never know.
