Well my neighbor's house (my Dream Home) has been sold to the highest bidder! The house was listed for $490,000 and was sold for $506,000!
When our neighbor's first mentioned they were going to sell (which was about 8 months ago) they told us it wouldn't be for another 2-3 years... my brain was tickin' away,, ~~trying to figure out a way to be able to afford it within the next 3 years~~ well darnit, it came sooner than we thought and for a lot more than we thought! It is truly MY DREAM HOME!
1/2 a MIL! I mean the house is a GEM, COMPLETELY turnkey which is rare for an older home (I believe it was built in the early 1900's-maybe 1920's) They are people who TOOK TOTAL PRIDE in their home..
so.. why would they leave??? They are preparing for retirement and bought a low-maint condo,, they will be snowbirds.
I just hope the new owners appreciate what they have (which they should if they paid more than asking price!)
Yesterday they had a moving sale. I bought the typewriter in the picture. It is the cutest little thing. I put the teapot next to it to compare the size. It's just a baby.
Their moving sale didn't start until 10am but the vultures lined up at 7--literally a LINE outside their front door. They must have seen it in the paper and KNOW they have antiques etc... UNREAL to see the people stand out there for 3 hours!!
