My girlfriend saw a house online she liked a lot. Its out of state where her family lives. Her dad, and here went to go look at it, and she didn't want it anymore. It kinda upset me, because we been talking about getting married, and I liked the house too. It was a foreclosure as is, but was only 15,000. 4 bedrooms 2 bathrooms with a basement.
She saw a different house for 50,000. 2 bedrooms 1 1/2 Beth and she ended up getting that house. She said she choose it because she didn't want a mortgage start out with because things regardless will need to be fixed.
She said she choose to get this one because someone owns it, (old couple)
She said everything is out dated, and mostly from the 70s. She said They had all new electrical work, updated the Plumbing, windows, and roof in the last 5 years. She said. They also had a new hot water thank as well. But the house has orange carpet, the whole house is basically paneling.
She said she didn't want the other one because it needed work inside and out. It needed everything from new electrical work to a new roof. She said the wood around the windows looked like it was rotting pretty bad. She didn't think it was worth it, and believe it take more then 50,000 to fix it up.
I dissageee with her Espicslly She got the house for cheaper then 15,000 it be worth it.
Both homes are pretty old, and built in 1910
But it in the old part of town, but schools are good, and her family is all 5-15 mins away. Its Her first house.
