real estate advice?

[the_bird]

That's great news, Todd. Looks like a real nice house. How big's the lot?

And do you get full claim to that garage space?

 

[todd_k]

thanks guys. The lot is about 1/2 acre, I don't have the exact number yet but it extends another 30-40 feet back into those woods. There is a somewhat busy road behind the trees so it's nice to have that buffer. We are going to have to fence the back yard for Floyd and I'd like to get the driveway paved but that will be a little down the road.
And yes, I have claimed the garage and one of the bedrooms will be the Man Room.

Very nice! Got my fingers crossed for you and A.

home inspection was today. no major issues were found but there were 4 or 5 minor issues. garbage disposal is ceased up, there is 1 shingle missing off the roof, master bath sink leaks a little underneath, a little wood rot on the front porch railing and on the trim on the back door to the garage. hopefully the seller fixes all of them, I'm more concerned about the roof, disposal, and bathroom sink. Guess I'll find out Tuesday or Wednesday.
Now to get these mortgage guys to cut the BS and give me a better deal!

I've already thought about that! I bottling the SNPA the week before we're suppose to close so my first brew in the new house will be the Hop Whompus. Depending on if we close on time or not, the 1st brew will be around Thanksgiving, maybe a week after.

Are we all invited to the housewarming?

When you register the agreement you sign says if you register any member is welcomed to come to your home at their leisure.

 

[todd_k]

All are welcome, except Red Sox fans (just don't tell SWMBO I said that!). Hopefully this all works out, I really don't want to stay in this apartment any longer than we have to.

 

[todd_k]

The deal is done! We closed this afternoon and the place is ours! :rockin: !!!!!!!!!!

 

[the_bird]

Awesome!

When do you move in?
