Home, Sweat, Home
No, it’s NOT a typo! Yes, you read it right!
Why Home, Sweat, Home? If the photos don’t speak for themselves (look closely at the carpets) then I’ll fill you in. It’s a whole lot of house that needs a whole lot of fixing up. But we were blessed to get this foreclosure at an incredible price. The problems we had along the way to get this house from the getting a new roof put on (first bank (owners) didn’t want to do it, then prez of homeowner association had a fit at the “approved” shingles chosen) to the new down payment requirements going from 5% to 10% and the last minute closing glitches that kept pushing back the closing til we thought we found an out when the house measure hundreds of square feet less than it was advertised (and later read the contract very carefully that stated “Do not take square footage at face value) was enough to drive the listing agent out of real estate! Seriously! Though non of it was our fault, this house was one major headache for her and she’s moving on. Now it’s our headache, er…home! And we’re trusting God to sell our old home quickly, so say a prayer or two!
In the next coming weeks I will be posting photos and begging for some decorating ideas. Some of the spaces are too big for me to figure out what to do with, so I could use your help and any renovating tips!
