Yesterday seller clients of mine accepted a buyer's counter-offer for their lake cottage in Winchester.  Happily for all concerned, this deal was much easier to put together than all too many deals of the recent past.  To be sure, there is much work to be done before the sale closes, but this kind of work is the happy kind.  I mention the accepted offer to assure readers that even in these crazy financial times there are people just like them are out there in the real estate market, making purchases, and investing in their future.
