mini-muffin Posted February 6, 2011 Share #1 Posted February 6, 2011 Jeff and I looked at a house before he left that we were interested in. So today Riderduke came down with a friend TC (some of the crew have met her) to check the place out for me. After looking under in and on top we headed off to McDonald's for coffee. Actually I headed home real fast to pick up the plat Jeff got from the health dept with the septic info. Which seems to be off. Long story short TC (whose a real estate agent up in VA) called a friend and got me a new agent locally to work with. The one I had wasn't very helpful. So we all headed over to the agent's office and I put in an offer. I don't know if you're suppose to have fun at a real estate office but we did. The place is gonna need work, so David will have his work cut out for him. Anyway I guess I just wait now to find out if they accept the offer. I can't thank TC and David enough for the help and hand holding. Kinda scary doing this on my own. They may regret offering to keep holding my hand through this.

Dano Posted February 6, 2011 Share #5 Posted February 6, 2011 Hmmm, where's the pics? And, how big is the garage? Jeff wouldn't know what to do with a garage to work out of, it better be a big one! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mini-muffin Posted February 6, 2011 Author Share #6 Posted February 6, 2011 Well it doesn't have a garage on it (yet), but it has 4 acres so there just may be room for one. It does have a 3 bedroom 2 bath doublewide on it. As for price that will be determined if they accept the offer. But no need to worry about muffinman it won't require him being gone for long. Plus I'm not putting him in debt. Margaret Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mini-muffin Posted February 6, 2011 Author Share #11 Posted February 6, 2011 Ok it's not far from where I am now. It's in the same county as a matter of fact I think it's like 10 miles from where we are. We have a home owners Assoc. where we live now (which I hate). The place we have now is paid for so we'd sell that after we moved. I'm not gonna move all this junk by myself either. He's got a bunch of stuff in the yard, ask David and Arthur and a few others who have actually seen our yard. Anyway I'll let you all know how it goes.

mini-muffin Posted February 9, 2011 Author Share #23 Posted February 9, 2011 I've been looking for a while now so I have a pretty good idea what the market in this area is doing. If I don't get this one I'm sure they'll be another. One place we had wanted to look at was under contract then but not now. Margaret Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
