As you know a few months ago I was trying to buy a new manufactured home and a lot to put it on. Well, that has totally fallen through. So anyway, the other day I saw a listing for an 1182 sq ft 3 bed 2 bath dbl gar in my price range, so I set up a meeting with my Realtor to see the house. We get there and it is not 1182 sq ft, its 1782 sq ft, not 3 bed 2 bath, its 4bed 2bath, island snack bar in the kitchen, formal dining, formal living and a family room, and best part is that the shop is a little bigger than the garage I currently have, only the wash/dry, furnace and water heater are all in the house so they will not be taking up my valuable shop space.
Last Saturday I put in an offer that was several thousand less than the asking price, today they made a counter offer of a few thousand less than the asking price. I have accepted there offer. It is a bit of a sows ear at the moment but with some time and elbow grease I will easily turn it into a silk purse. Having built them for 4 years and then engineered them for another 4 years I should have no problems making the changes that I want to make. Right now closing is scheduled for the end of Aug but I am hoping that we can move it up by at least a week.
Master bedroom, guest room, den, anyone got any interesting ideas for the 4th bedroom? So far my ideas are a dungeon or a den for TBC.
I should be able to post some pics later next week.
This means that I am deeper in debt now than at any other time in my life..............shit!!!!
Good for you!.... House debt is good debt...... It helps secure your future
