I think im about to get a house!
Woooohoooo!
My realtor just called and he's getting a bite on a house. My buddies haven't seen it yet but because of the price they think its a crackhouse because of the price. Its just a bank repo.
price is $50k
its 1500 sq. ft. 3br, 1 bath, hardwood floors, rear deck, huge covered front porch, enclosed rear and then in front of the porch the previous owner built a very serious looking car port. I'm usually not all that impressed by carports and would much rather have a garage myself, but this thing has a full aluminium roof and a frame made out of 2" box tubing on a concrete pad, its about a story and a half tall. Someone spent a lot of money on this thing.
It has a free standing fireplace but this is an older frame home with wood floors and I'm a little itchy about a woodburning stove in box of tinder....and it sits on 1/4 of an acre within city limits. It does need some work. The floors need refinished, the rear deck, in my opinion, needs to be destroyed and rebuilt, whoever built it the first time didnt seal it or use pressure treated wood and its to the point now that so much of it would need replaced to make it right that you might as well do the whole thing. and i could do wonders with a weekend and some yard tools in this place.
I guess nobody has bid on it because you can't really see it. Because its a foreclosure there's been no yardwork or anything so this thing is practically overgrown with trees and grass. I actually dug down into the grass to look at the house and you can tell its been painted probably within the last year or so and the roof is probably just a couple years old.

Life: Nature's way of keeping meat fresh
Getting old ain't for sissy's
As you are I was, as I am you will be
You can't fix stupid, but you can always out smart it.
