HOUSE UPDATE ON PAGE 1 !

[Saffron]

That is a beautiful house!!! Best of luck to you!!!

 

[Kteacher]

What a great house!!! We've been passively looking for a bigger house for the last 3 or 4 years , so I know how excited you must be to find exactly what you want so quikly! Good luck with everything

 

[Zurg]

Very nice.

Here are some practical questions, not show stoppers but things to ask so if they give the wrong answere you can bring it up at price time:

1) How old is the heater / Air system. How often was in maintained and what does it use for energy?

2) How old is the roof?

3) How about the hot water heater?

4) Doest the in-law suite have it's own heat/ac/hot water?

5) Any Bugs?

Now this is real improtant - does the area have cable modem or DSL so you can DIS fast? LOL

Good luck..I hope everything works out for you. The house is beautiful!!

 

[Robinrs]

Awesome update, Beth! I'm sure all the practical answers will come up in the inspection!

I'm seriously considering moving my parents in with me and my sister and moving to Fla. It would be the best for all of us overall. If I can only talk them out of Chattanooga!

It will save you all money. If my parents and my sister and my family moved in together we could stop paying a combination of $2200!

The house is beautiful. Hope everything works out for you.

LOL Bennett, I already know the answers to most of your questions,

1. 4 years old, they were all replaced when the current owner moved in.

2. The roof was redone in 1997

3. I honestly don't remember about the water heater although I know I saw that I just don't recall.

4. Yep the mother-in-law suite has its own unit. There are 3 total units in the home....Electricity runs on average (12 months of paying the same exact bill each month....$170)

5. Nope no bugs. That has to be thouroughly checked and documented before any home can be sold in the state of Mississippi....which I think is WONDERFUL!!! You have to have the certificate that is no older than 30 days at the time of sale.

The house looks beautiful! How great that you found something you like so quickly. And it sounds like your Mom likes it too! I hope all goes well with it.

I'm also sick to stomach thinking about how much house you can get for $225,000. Prices around here are just out of control.

 

[PamOKW]

Here's the least expensive ($420,000) 4 bedroom home in our local listing. LOL!

Wishing you the best again Beth!! I hope things will work out for the best with this house. It sounds like a dream!

 

[mamajoan]

I was just wondering if you had tried several different mortgage companies or banks? Some are a little tougher than others but I would think you would be able to get a little better than 7.25%, Hec the rate my even decrease by Friday...
Crossing my fingers that you get what you desire... good luck!

Beauty, the house is beautiful! I hope everything works out well for you.

And also my first thought was wow look at those taxes, so low. Here is a link to what you could get here for $340,000, but check out the taxes!

[Beauty]

Those are both really nice houses....Pam you live close to WWE headquarters...ROTFLOL...Okay forget wrestling (just for a moment..lol) I was actually pretty "house buying" stupid. I thought taxes were all paid in one lump sum at the end of the year. I had no idea they were added into your house payment. I much much prefer it this way.

Robin I agree.....my mom is just really scared right now because it all happened so quickly. Together we pay right at $2,000 per month not to mention that my light bill was $300 moms was $300 and my grandmother's was $180....Okay this will save so so much. Food for one family, less eating out because my grandmother and mom both love to cook just never had a family to cook for. Why Chattanooga? Not that I don't like it there, its very pretty especially Rock City!! But Florida, WOW that is still my dream but we have to look at promotions and what John has here.....so we'll just have to visit more

 

[CaliforniaDreaming]

Wow, Beauty! That's a nice house! I was surprised by the price - here you'd pay atleast $400,000 for something like that (or, in the really nice neighborhoods, $600,000+!).

 

[PamOKW]

you live close to WWE headquarters

ROFL! Maybe that's why the prices are so much higher than where you are.

Beauty.....I know where the headquarters is located. They fly a giant flag. The best thing about the XFL ending was they took down the very scary huge black flag that used to fly over the headquarters. Now, the studios are a secret....but I'm pretty sure I know where they are if you want to do some stalking.

 

[Beauty]

LOL Pam! DH wouldn't let me do any stalking, drooling is too much for him....LOL!!! I would love to see Stamford though! I can only imagine the house Vince McMahon has....or Shane McMahon for that matter. I read on a wrestling board today that they just bought a new vacation home in Boca Raton for the LOW LOW price of only 14 million!!

 

[DixieDreamer]

I'm so excited for you Beauty! That is a charming house and I know you want this very badly. It just seems made to happen doesn't it?!

Congratulations on your find - and wishing you good luck in sealing the deal.

 

[cotye]

Looks like a fabulous house! Best of luck!
