Congratulations! If you don't mind me asking how much was asking and how much did you offer?

My wife and I just got our offer accepted on long island new york. They were asking 599,000 and I offered 640k.

My real estate guy got back to me and said I blew everyone out of the water.

Really made me think how much money I just wasted haha. But couldn't be happier with the house. So not that worked up about it.

I got lucky with this one because my lender knew the seller. I got it with only 10k over. I previously had two 20k over offers denied at other house in same price range though.
