So brent and I went by that house today. We were briefly solicited for cash by a local. He totally changed character on us though when we informed him we might be moving to that 'hood. heh. I'm quite enchanted with it.
My request to be shown the property didn't go to Jan for some reason. though I had specified it should go to her. Instead some guy named Beasly called me and I chatted with him about it. He said he'd call Jan for me and let her know I wanted to see it. If Jan doesn't call me tomorrow, I'll call her and see if we can get in to see it this week.
The 1st floor is rented out at the moment and the 2nd and 3rd floors are empty. This could be a huge fun project for me and brent. I really am getting too excited about it for not having seen the inside.
We also spent much of the day driving around various parts of north city, looking at neighborhoods and houses. I found an almost-perfect house right across from the brick water tower just off grand. It's on Blair I think. It had both a turret and a fire escape. Dreamy. However, it and almost all the houses on that part of the block were boarded up. *sigh*.
So anyway, after all that I'm still in love with the house I posted about earlier. I really am going to need help getting my house ready to sell though. Anyone want to spend 170k on a lovely shrewsbury house? :)
