Unusual...actually, personally have never heard this before. Usually a yes or a no.

Was someone unexpectedly not present at the first one? Did you have any change in circumstances in the interim -- job change, sale of another property, etc.? I'd ask your agent what's up. Maybe he/she can fish for what's going on.

I have never heard of this, and I'd say it means you were 1) borderline and 2) charmed one of the board members who is pulling for you. Try hard to get your agent to give you the lay of the land before you do round #2.

This is uncommon. My guess would be, as front_porch said, you were borderline and there was some issue with the interview/financials/references/how you dressed/etc (and any of these can be pros or cons). Obviously they are not ruling you out though.

Very unusual, but the fact that you're being summoned to a second interview means the answer -- so far -- is NOT "no".

Follow Front_Porch's advice and talk to your agent about getting the "lay of the land".

Second interview? You aren't an actor trying to land a movie/Broadway/T.V. role; and being asked to return for a "call-back".

If they didn't approve of you enough, the first time -- go courting in some other building.

"If they didn't approve of you enough, the first time -- go courting in some other building. "

It's not a car purchase -- it's a HOME purchase. They are IN CONTRACT. Do you even understand what that means?

Yes Matt. I've been in contract several times. I understand what that means.

Then you understand it's not as simple as just turning on your heel and walking out of an automobile showroom, yes?

Yes you did: "If they didn't approve of you enough, the first time -- go courting in some other building."

No Matt. That's your interpretation of my comment.

Some things are not easy.

Life isn't always easy.

Work isn't always easy.

1668:

Don't forget, the Bored interview is every much about you learning about them. Especially in small buildings, if they are stupid or dirty or racists, or just or too liberal, or too rush limbaugh enough too not want you, it's probably a blessing in disguise!
