Sounds cool[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-cool.gif[/img]

We also made an offer today. We'll see. This house actually has a 5 car garage[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img] 4 car for me[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img] the wife gets the stall by the door going into the house[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]

Should know hopefully tonight[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]

Has a 13x 35 foot side yard, perfect for an RV pad[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]
when we moved in, EVERYONE cringed and said, "Why don't you bulldoze it and build new". EVERY room in the house has pretty much had a major reno (except kitchen; we left cabinets, counters and floor alone. everything else got done tho). we have about 1/3 of an acre, 3400sq' house, 20x30 detached garage (=shop), HUGE paved front area and super easy access for my 30' TT. The yard was just as bad with 8' high overgrown crud all over. now the landscaping is way overboard for our 'hood. so ya, it's been a journey. but we need toy room and don't wanna be able to see our neighbors (listening to your ****** POS renter-neigbors cranked up rap music while they smoke pot non-stop has that affect on us), so it's off to bigger pastures (we hope).

sorry, my selfish rant. sincerely; GOOD LUCK!! hope ya get it!! hope it makes you and your family happy.

Wish I could get property to go with it[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img] and only drive half a mile to the kids school[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img] Not going to happen though[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/img] I hear you on the rap crap and *******. We have a car wash aobut 1/4 mile away, get to listen to it while the "beat" shakes the windows[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-shocked.gif[/img]

CONGRATS MD!! you gotta sell yours now?? word of advice; feng shui (Chinese tradition of placing things in certain ways, but more importantly; getting rid of clutter). so throw out lotsa junk now. we thot about garage sales and i'm as frugal as you'll meet, but in the end i felt better giving our old stuff to charity and glad we didn't waste 2-4 full days of our lives grinding over pennies with some cheap pr*ck who's already getting the item for 5% of new price. and you'll make maybe $200-500. not worth it.

Oh I feel your pain, my family just moved to a bigger house about 15 miles away from our old house. We have lived in the new house now for 2 weeks and still are living out of boxes [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img] Moving sucks, IMO!

But Im sure your kids will find it quite interesting. But Congrats, Im sure it will be well worth it!!

Not around here[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/img] Would need to travel travel atleast 45 mins east to get anything like that. And that is not much of a house. What you described is on 3 acres and cost about $1.3 million[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-shocked.gif[/img]

Last week the Modesto area was rank #3 in the nation on excessive housing prices. Housing in this area is over priced 53% [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-shocked.gif[/img]

I think Fresno/Clovis was like #9, forget what % though[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-blush.gif[/img]
Yeah, it's pretty much insane. I've given up buying a house here. Friends are talking about Texas and Iowa. I don't know about those Texas people. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img] Iowa, maybe. Buddy is a machinist and his gf is umm a job specialist I guess. Helps to find people work. He'd make $1 more an ahour but she'd be about $1 less so it's a wash. But the housing is nothing compared to here.

Another friend who's a draftsman is probably going to be moving to Dallas. He got called by a head hunter. He's happy where he is so he added $10K to what he makes and they accepted. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-blush.gif[/img]

Congrats on the new house. I've already moved someone this year. I only move once a year. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]

Have a buddy moving from Seattle to Sac at the end of the month. Movers wanted $2K. He's gonna get a U-Haul...$600 most likely.

Last time I moved it took me the better part of a month it seemed.

Take this time to get rid of stuff. I move again, I'm calling for a roll-away tub. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]

His house will probably sell quick. Maybe 2 weeks on the market if it's anyway decent. If it's in awesome condition, give it a few days. That's how insane the market in the Central Valley is right now.
