More houses looked at.
More houses looked at with bad basements and in need of $80,000 of work.
But over dinner, we decided that one of them is worth it even with the work we'll have to do on it.
So maybe... just maybe... this will be the new House of Love IV in 5-6 weeks.
Four bedrooms, a 2 car garage, and a shitload of purple and lavender carpet to remove before we move in!
That is if all goes well.
I'm kind of making an initial low offer based on what I'm making off of the House of Love III sale but I'm inclined to make a slightly higher offer if need be.
This house is in the ideal neighborhood for me, and is a brisk walk to High Street, the Whetstone Park of Roses, and a library where we can have crappy VHS copies of Doctor Who episodes sent to.
There houses are maintained. There are no abandoned cars in yards and the lawns are cut.
I think it'll work out in the long run.
The best part is that every dollar put in this house will eventually come out of this house.
The HOL III is at its max.
So...
Once more unto the breach dear geeks...

I like this one too. It doesn't have the plantation feel of the other one but it is in the neighborhood where you really want to be. It has a driveway and a garage (whoo hoo), and 4 bedrooms. Plenty of room for guests and crack.
The kitchen looks small from the pictures and the lighting needs some updating. Other than some ugly carpet, the place looks good. The listing says that its hardwood underneath, hopefully thats in good condition and won't need much work.
Keep us updated on how the offer goes.

Oh yeah? Well, I can walk a block down and get catfish and ribs served out of an old van. Do they offer that at the Park of Roses?? I thought not.
