Not quite ready for the saddle
Posted on February 27, 2008 - Filed Under Business |
So many great deals right now. I tried to get out and look at some houses. But the will-power to make it happen just isn’t there.
In talking with the Real Estate Agent (REA), I explained that my brain has turned to clay. Burn-out, fatigue, and all the problems from the previous rehab left a bad taste in my mouth. No toothpaste exists which can remove the grime. Some time was needed for recovery.
Perhaps a trip to Nepal, becoming a monk.
One day the phone rang. REA had a property for me to look at. It originally was purchased at $650,000. On the market as a short sale for $545,000. The house had already been rehabbed, no contractors required. Another Craftsmen Style Bungalow. It was worth a look.
He was right. The house was gorgeous. Two bedroom, one bath up front with a 1 bedroom, 1 bath behind. The yard was immaculate, very well maintained.
But that feeling hit my stomach. That same feeling that happens when I walk into the dentist office or McClownLand restaurant: YUCK.
But I did go take a look at it.
Next month I’ll see if I’m ready to take another bite at the apple.
