Offer accepted!

A few moments ago we accepted an offer on our house so, pending all the stuff like inspection and closing, it's sold! A young family with a three year old came to our open house a week ago Sunday and then came back twice with their realtor. Yesterday, while we were in SDak they made an offer. We responded tonight with a counter, they countered, we countered and they accepted.
I've had a persistent hunch that it would sell at the right time. They asked for a Oct. 4, closing which is perfect for us. We plan to move to the condo on Sept. 29 and don't have to make a mortgage payment on it until Oct. 1. As soon as the inspection is complete we can "live" in our house again.
The house was on the market about six weeks which is shorter than the average 90 days in this area. The hardest part about leaving? It's leaving our neighbors. However, we will get so see them via the book club.
