Do Not Judge a Book By It's Cover

Holes in the linolium. Cigarette burns in the "new" carpet. Burn spots on the counter tops. A very bad smell. Twenty five feet from a six-lane highway.

These are all characteristics that my dream home apparently has.

Damn.

The in-laws checked it out for us earlier today and said it is a dump. I have gotten over my terrible house crush and am moving on.

The District Manager responded to my request for an official letter stating I have a job--she said she'd send it ASAP. I have a job! (even if I don't know the details yet!)

1 Yeah the near-the-highway is the worst. Maybe the smell. The rest can be changed.

3 Thanks. I'd totally be OK with a fixer-upper if our morgage was low enough to provide funds for that, but the house is too expensive for a fixer. The investor who is looking to flip the house paid almost $70,000 less for the house in March. He put nothing but window-dressing into the house and is jacking the price up far too much...that's OK--I'm moving on...
