Re: I bought a garage!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Thanks everyone
![]() For anyone who's curious, this was my old garage. It's VERY spacious, but too drafty for my tastes and the roof leaks like crazy!!! ![]()

Re: I bought a garage!!!!!!!!!!!!!
You don't know what moving is son. I moved my sister in Charlotte 4 times in less than a year and all of them where 3rd and 4th floor apartments. Once was in a pooring down rain storm. The stairs were outside. Her boyfriend and me got soaked she stayed inside wraping stuff. It don't matter. I have some hand trucks also.

Re: I bought a garage!!!!!!!!!!!!!
congratulations, you did it at a perfect time.
3rd floor apartment? any chance the balcony is close to a paved area? I would make a slide for the boxes and such. |

Re: I bought a garage!!!!!!!!!!!!!
When my son graduated from college he lived in a 5th floor apartment. You can imagine what college boys furniture looks like in the end. They had a sliding door out to a small balcony so that is the way the couch and chairs came out. It made putting them in the dumpster easier also.

Re: I bought a garage!!!!!!!!!!!!!
![]() Now is a great time to buy, in addition to the no strings (but we'll pay for it somehow) $8,000, we're getting the house for about 15K less than it's last appraisal, the seller is paying our closing costs, and our APR is just 4.6%. Had we bought, say two years ago, we would have paid closing cost, probably close to the appraised value, and probably 5.5-6% interest.

Re: I bought a garage!!!!!!!!!!!!!
That`s great that your payment is only $50 over your old rent and storage.Now,factor in that you deduct the interest,which is the whole payment right now.Lookin`gooooid...

Re: I bought a garage!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Yeah, $820/mo for a 2 bedroom apt + $70/mo for a 10x10 packed full storage unit. That's $890/mo and we're looking at about $940-950/mo for the house with taxes + insurance included. Obviously, utilities will be much higher, but it's still worth it

Re: I bought a garage!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Jesse.....After purchasing my 1st place, I had to learn a few lessons that weren't apparent to me while living the apartment life.....not trying to rain on your excitment, just want you to be aware (if you aren't already....you seem to be a smart cookie) of some additional items that you want to prepare for.....you gotta get a storage shed for your lawn mower/ other yard tools etc(go bigger...not that tiny 21" deal)....gotta maintain the yard (need to look better than the neighbors...which means seeding, aerating, fertilzing, etc!!!), gotta maintain the HVAC unit, gotta get bugs and termite inspection every year, PLUS the wifey is definitely going to want to paint every room in the house a different color with your help of course (LOL), need a refrigerator for the garage.....Lots more to it than just a house payment....but have fun with it!!!hahahah

Re: I bought a garage!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Oh yeah, there's already a list. The current owners completely ruined every piece of carpet upstairs in the house (3 kids) and it's going to be very expensive to replace it all. Thank God the downstairs is all real hardwood. The carpet is near it's life cycle anyway. The inside colors are very, ummmm, festive? I'll need a lot of primer to cover some of them up
![]() There actually is a 10x10ish storage shed out back. My father in law is hooking me up with everything I need for lawn care (they moved from 1.5 acre yard to 0.25 acre yard and only need a push mower). Bugs/termite is a must in this area. It's a few hundred/yr. We've already had all the inspections, everything basically passed, the owner agreed to fix a few things. No termites/termite damage. My parents house has been a "work in progess" since 1984. I'm all too familiar with "home projects." I get to clean this out and find a place for all of this crap too:

Re: I bought a garage!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Well ****!
Y'all ain't gonna believe this ****. Went to closing today. It turns out the house is in the name of 4 people, all family from Columbia (the country, not the city.) Only one of them spoke English, the 16 year old daughter (she's not one of the owners, but acted as their mediator). Apparently they had a restaurant they closed in August 2007 and never told the state they closed it, so they were charged interest and fees since then on $3,000 in taxes (on the business) they never paid. That number has now balooned to over $12K. They would have still come out of closing with $, but the lady was very emotional and wouldn't close until this was taken care of. Like I give a **** if you ****ed up and didn't pay your damn taxes. The attorney's office even offered to hold their money in escrow for them to resolve the issue (they said they paid this months ago) and we could close, but they wouldn't do it. I am BEYOND furious. We gave them until next wed. to resolve everything, the bank was OK with that and we signed an extension. After that, if they don't close on next Wednesday we will have a legal right to end our part of the contract and go after them for damages.
