The more I hear
The more I hear from coworkers having done repairs, the more I think we could lower the bid on that place to $75k.
And then there's Juice, who decided to pee in my Wheaties this morning. Yeah, he's probably right, to an extent. Who said we would do all the work ourselves? Not I.
do not put yourself in the position of trying to do massive repairs. do you both not at least weekly gripe that you can't find the time to clean out the front room or the attic? how will you build walls or make the other obviously vital repairs to this house?
Ugh. You know, if I didn't dream about things like this, I'd be looking forward to a trailer park. You have to have some dream goal to keep you motivated.
Back in the dream world, I would hire the big work done. And in reality, no way in hell I would pay $145k for an empty shell unless a) it was new and b) it was supermegafantastic. Fuck that.
Give me some credit, G.
