totally OT positive thoughts?
Anyone have any good thoughts for home buyers to spare? DD has found a
really perfect house for herself. She has looked at what seems a zillion houses. I am sick of looking at houses. She is a nervous wreck. This house is walking distance for us (even bad-knee Georgia pooch) but not too close. This could be a long month. Any good thoughts you can muster would be well appreciated! Taria |

Taria I've definitely got good thoughts to spare for your DD's new house. While you and she have done a lot of hard work finding the right one, I know that now the apprehension really begins as you work through the mortgage process and finally the moving. It will be worth it! Michelle in NV |

Have you suffered through a professional 'home inspection' ? It would have
been so nice to have had one before we bought the Swamp. We had some awful surprises - like, for example, the pump to the well didn't work. Discovered that the wiring must have been done by a tight-fisted plumber . . . that sort of thing. Polly "Michelle C" wrote in message ...

Thanks! The market has been so wacky here it is amazing. Short sell could
mean awhile before she gets word back. Taria "Bobbie Sews More" wrote in message ... Good thoughts about this are on their way! Barbara in SC |

Thanks Sandy. We live in a house just under 1500 ft. and she is here with
us. I think that is about the size you are familar with. It is kind of a tight fit but she has been paying her own way here while saving too. We are all pretty ready! Taria Here's hoping, Taria!

Thanks Michelle. Looking at repo's and short sells makes you really lose
hope in the human race. With the awful way folks have treated some of these homes they should have to live in tents. It is really shameful. It is kind of fun to watch dd move through the process though. Taria I've definitely got good thoughts to spare for your DD's new house.

BTDT on other houses Polly. This particular house she is dealing with is 4
years old. If she has anyone look at it my contractor/builder brother will. There sure can be surprises in house buying. CA has a boatload of disclosure rules but I don't know how that works out with short sales. I love how the inspectors have disclaimers all over their contracts that say they are pretty much responsible for only what they can see and if they miss anything too bad anyway. I told her I might just try to outbid her on this particular house. She wasn't too keen on that. : ) TAria "Polly Esther" wrote in message ...

That brings back memories, Taria. We moved into our 1500 sq. ft. home here one day, and the very next day DD#2, her then-DH and their two dogs moved in with us. It was supposed to be for two weeks, but it turned into three months. Four adults and three dogs in a house we'd intended for two adults and one dog soon became rather crowded, as you might imagine. We also were pretty ready when their home was finally finished after countless delays.
