Wow...I'm not particulary fond of ranch-style houses...but the second one (which must have a lower level/finished basement/rear section) is really appealling!  The first one looks like a 'diamond in the rough' and I can see you doing a lot with a few cosmetic changes & landscaping!

So, which one is in PA?  :biggrin:

Unfortunately, neither of them. They are in Madison County, Indiana (Anderson, except one is very far out of Anderson but still has their address, and the other is near a tiny little one-stoplight town, wait, no its a 4 way flasher...anyway tiny town called Markleville. Never thought about looking there for a home, but I am in love with that one. And its cheap as hell for that amount of land and sq footage.

Seems like the perfect amount of land & sq.footage to let the boys out to roam!

What do you consider "cheap as hell"? :biggrin:

$115,500

One county over, where I work, that'd be $200, easy, for that amount of land alone.

OMG! If you can...JUMP ON THAT NOW! That sounds like an incredible bargain...and you never know, if they're motivated to sell - they may accept less.  Would you mind that commute?

Nahh...It'd be just about the same.

I know I should. I've just got so much effort sunk into this house, and not to mention, I haven't finished my painting project and my white berber has seen brighter days. Literally.

Well, you've got to do what's best for you...kinda makes it hard to jump ship when you've poured your heart and soul into something.

I have (very small) glimpses of doubt as I look around my freshly painted, newly carpeted, newly ceramic-tiled house with blue skies every day...knowing what & where we're moving to...

But, that's what life is all about -- taking chances & moving on. :smile:

Yeah, see mine needs freshly painted and new carpets wouldn't hurt. That will be just another unneeded expense. But then again, maybe I'll regret not taking the chance.

I'm going to show it to Aaron and let him make the call. Then I can't have the burden of regret either way entirely on my shoulders alone.

The realtor's last name is Dazey. How funny is THAT?

I really like "your favorite" Daisy.  It has my vote.   ;D

Thanks guys. I know. This is tough...I could handle making the move, but it would be sad, too. Aaron worked his ass off to get me this house because I wanted it (and we were struggling back then, barely bringing in $600/wk combined). So it would be sad, but the other house has so many things we want: more room inside, a view of the trees where I can sit and just chill, no annoying neighbors and their loose dogs, the land has so much to offer as far as expanding our business from one truck to two. I'd have somewhere to park them if he were able to put up a big pole barn behind the house somewhere to park them. Something not tacky.

Both homes face east. I've never lived in a home facing east. Its always been west, south once for a short time. Northwest our first apartment.

I like log homes.  I actually looked at one myself once upon a time.  Didn't buy it though.  Something about a log cabin in Florida just doesn't seem right.   ;D
