And on to closing we go
Apr 12, 2021, 11:13 AM
|
|
Buyers want us to cover half of the repair expenses as a credit at closing
No problem. Will still net a good amount.
So it's over.
Now we wait to close.

the most successful financial transaction of his life. Can tell stories for DAYS about it...how to DIY FSBO, cut corners on structural stuff, mask wastewater runoff issues, etc. AND MAKE MAJOR BANK.
Except when all is said and done, he'll live in a home that was a lateral move, he'll be indebted FOREVER to his maw-maw-in-law, and he'll still be broke as DMX.
I'm not sure he really knows what "profit" means. At least not effective profit.
Good times though, I enjoy watching the hamster run on the wheel.

The buying from family part would prob be the biggest
Apr 12, 2021, 11:33 AM

"Thanks, but no thanks-we found another place we really liked" part of this whole thing that I'd have done.
I mean I wouldn't sell and buy a house for basically moving expenses, but being indebted to family (especially someone else's family) is a never ending heII that won't ever stop paying dividends...even after they sell that place and move again.
Just hearing how much meemaw-in-law helped you at every Christmas, Easter and Sunday breakfast is the guilt trip that will never end. And Lord help him if he ever gets divorced--he'll end up owing his wife AND his MIL.

moving expenses by getting his disabled cousins to help him move using a pick up. Somehow he's gonna come out of this thing with like $200 in his pocket. Except it won't be in his pocket it will be tied up in his home loan.

His wife's gonna be all like "hey let's take that profit we made when we sold the trailer and go to disney world for christmas" and then he's gonna have to explain to her that they don't have any profit. He'll run in circles trying to explain it, but we all know he can't. Then the wife will accuse him of lying and they'll have their first CDV call to the police in the new house.

My CU next Tuesday of a grandmother was like that.

That old haint owned the "I might be dyin' this year and you're gonna miss me" act since she was like 50. She died when she was 80. Nobody missed her.
My father used to talk to her on Tuesdays, and he'd start getting wound up about it on Sunday afternoons.
Her husband (my grand father) was the one who believed the moon landing was faked, and also that everyone was out to get him. Dude was dirt effing poor his whole life--who wanted that?

Already had that conversation with the family

(and surprisingly the wife) this is now our house.
Not a museum to your grandparents. We will be remodeling. If you want pictures of what it use to look like you better take them now.
Nobody had any issues with that.
Only issue we are having is SIL bought some massive ####### furniture that me and BIL had to put in the house because her house was too small for it since dumb ### didn't measure it. Just bought it and had us go get it.
Now I've given her a deadline to get it out of the living room by Saturday when we move in or I'm moving it to the yard for trash pick up.
I hate that #####

Speaking from experience, that’s a pipe dream
In no time at all you will be on here griping about her old stuff still around, her design choices, her walking and like she still lives there
I could go on all day, but I’ve been instructed I need to trim the hedges appropriately
He k, I just got to.d by my 6 yr old that the rule is no shoes on the carpet, when asked who’s rule that is and she replied her grandma/my MIL, I walked all over that carpet with my shoes on
You don’t make rules in someone else’s house period
Even after the years of chastising you on here that everyone has done, this is the one thing I actually feel sorry that you have to endure
