slacker03150 08/17/20 10:49:44 PM #7:	zebatov posted... How many bed/bath for that? 3 bed 1.5 bath. The full bath was recently refinished. I wish the tub was a bit bigger, but the bathroom still looks great. argonautweakend posted... Hey....you're not slacking at all! Ever since I got on HRT, my life has really picked up. I'm down 80 lbs since January, I got a promotion at work, I started learning the flute and Swahili. I have to be a bit more consistent with my lessons, but I'm getting there. I can do the beginning of somewhere over the rainbow and I was able to pick out a few words when listening to a native speaker. I plotted out a story I am working on, but having issues with writing the plot in a way I like. I even picked up great courses plus and have been trying to learn some new things. argonautweakend posted... I want my money back! Can't I need it for the down payment and closing costs if they accept. wolfy42 posted... Are you doing a cash buy, that'll help alot, even if you just are pre-approved that could help as well. It's a sellers market right now though so negotiating may be hard, i'm surprised it's been on the market for awhile the way interest rates are right now etc. I am finishing off the approval with the bank tomorrow morning. Everything looks fine they just need me to come in and cross a few Ts and dot a few Is and I am meeting the realtor after work to send in the offer. As for why it is still on the market, they were originally asking 130,000 for it but reduced the price twice since. It does need a little work, but nothing major as it has an all new water heater, furnace, and roof. The biggest concern is the basement might have a leak, as it is a stone foundation, but it has a 3 car garage and I have a smart car, so I am not worried about storing anything down there and can look into water proofing it as even the asking price is well within my budget. --- I am awesome and so are you.

Honestly that's nothing there is a 6 bedroom 4 bath mini mansion for 140, but it is out in the boondocks and requires some fixing up. You can get a really nice newer house for around 200-250 here.

slacker03150 08/18/20 6:50:09 PM #13:	Just got back from the meeting. My realtor says he talked to the sellers realtor and it sounds like he is trying to dump his rental properties before covid makes things worse so good chances he takes the lower offer.
