So, I went and had a look at that property I mentioned before, and…..
It’s a frickin’ money pit if I ever saw one. There was a old farm house and a small cottage. The farm house from what I could see of the inside had already been gutted or needed to be. The outside had stucco was covering the old stone, but there were parts that were about to fall off or had already had! Making waist high holes. The owner had conveniently placed to large flat rocks on the front porch that covered up to spots where the floor boards were either gone or about to collapse. That isn’t everything….
Now, even if the place was fixed up, I realized it wouldn’t sell for what the guy was asking anyway. It is just a stones through away from the North East Extension and right across the street basically on the other side is 3 or4 cell phone towers. How many people are going to pay top dollar for a property in such a location??? I don’t think many.
So, I respectively told the guy it was more than I was interested in working on now.
Burn no bridges! I say. 😉
