Sold - Pending Inspection!

What were we thinking?!  A year or more to find a buyer?  We were wrong!  Did someone say quick?  By Monday morning, we had a cash offer from the first people to see the property.  Our buyers plan to live in the house, the inspection will be next.  We hope that will go smoothly - with the age of the house taken into consideration.  Forty-years is a good long life for a 77 manufactured!

We both feel somewhat under the gun - to find something in Iowa!   Our to-do list is huge!  Butch has his work cut out for him...  Hauling away all the stored piles of stuff  he's accumulated.  We have a new neighbor up the road - working to improve another older property - who's going to come & take a good portion away.

Managing multi-family residential, meant for years we'd been required to live on-site.  As we climbed the management ladder - we had to make the move ourselves - from smaller to larger properties.  We'd purchased a VA repossession in Marysville as an investment property.  (Since an apartment came as part of my employment package, we wanted a place of our own, just in case.)  The income from that investment - we used to buy the Homestead. 

Jentry burning the boxes~

I can't say how much I dislike moving!  I know some do it routinely - but I prefer to stay put!  We'd save our nice moving boxes, using them over & over again.  Once we were done with them this time - we had a celebratory fire!

Now - we're buying boxes!  Unreal!  Watch out what you wish for!
