Yahooooo Got a house!

[Renob]

Sweet the wife and I were the winning bidders on a HUD repo.

1490sqf in a nice quiet neighborhood near a school and park.

It?s a fixer upper but I was a contractor for 15 years so I was able to see beyond the stuff that need fixing. It should be a great way to build some fast sweat equity.

We got a great deal, last years tax appraisal on the house was $108,000 and are winning bid was $81,000.

Yahooooooooooooooooo

Ha, what you paid for your house is a down payment for the homes around here. That is why the wife and I are leaving the Boston area.

Congrats and when do you move in?

 

Argh - well work your butt off and they'll realize that they can't live without you.

You couldn't buy a mobile home for that around here.... I wish I could get a house for that kinda money.

I know what your talking about, we just left the Bay Area 3 months ago for the same reason.

I don't think you can get a small apartment in NYC with that much money
