The inspection period is almost over, and I\u2019m experiencing so many thoughts\u2014everything from the \u201cworst case\u201d to the \u201cbest case\u201d scenario of how the sale might play out.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s1\">The best case scenario is the buyers come into a large sum of money left to them by old aunt Hilda, decide to pay cash for the house without any concessions, and poof! House sold! <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s1\">The worst case scenario is they\u2019ve reconsidered living in the neighborhood where my home is and have made a plan to move to Anchorage, Alaska instead&#8230;the whole deal falls through, and I have to put it on the market all over again. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s1\">Of course, concerning myself and losing sleep will not affect the result in the end. But while enduring the uncertainty, it is human nature to ask, \u201cWhat\u2019s the worst that can happen?\u201d <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s1\">In computer science there are algorithms and data structures that use complex mathematical equations to determine best and worst case scenarios for a particular task. The funny thing is that often, both the best-case performance and the worst-case performace rarely ever happens! Ultimately, the outcome will fall somewhere in the middle.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s1\">I guess my point today is, that it\u2019s natural to consider the extremes of how a situation might play out, but it is most likely a waste of time to dwell on them. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p5\"><strong><span class=\"s1\">Lisa Petty, Editor<br \/>\n<\/span><span class=\"s1\">Equal Opportunity Employment Journal<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div class=\"mh-excerpt\"><p>I\u00a0don\u2019t know if you\u2019ve ever had the experience of selling a house, but I\u2019m finding that my first time isn\u2019t all that much fun.
