    yeah that is hubby's job lol.. he is going to buy a chain saw and chop them up and stack them. They actually didn't fall...t hey were cut and then left there... very strange lol

    and everything in the house was redone.

    The house was originally purchased for $70,000 that's how beat up and run down it was.... and the guy and his wife are " house flippers" as a hobby... so they bought it to fix it up and resell it. The kitchen is new, bathrooms are new, new paint, new carpet, support beams in the basement are brand new, new roof, new heating and cooling system, new flooring, new windows, new propane tanks. they redid everything.

    Our inspections are this Saturday... if everything goes good with that... we will sign everything

    Thanks everyone

    the kitchen is my favourite part.... hubby laughed and asked me why I was so into the kitchen since I hardly ever spend anytime in there lol.

    caseysmom, I know what you mean... I just keep looking at the listing online. I can't stay away from it lol

    Well... we aren't buying this home lol

    We found out some stuff... the septic system is not in good shape and needs to be replaced with a holding tank which needs to be serviced every three months.... we don't really want to be saddled with that....

    And there is some termite damage.... the house was since sprayed for termites but it is unknown at this time whether there was any damage to the framing...

    So we decided to back off of this one. We didn't even get the other inspections done yet... the first two inspections showed trouble... and that is enough for us.

    it was a very pretty home but could have lead to problems we didnt' want to deal with.

    So our home search continues lol
