So, our realtor is also the listing agent on this house, two blocks over from ours. They’re holding a twilight open house this Thursday, anybody want to come crash it with us? Or, anyone here want to buy this house and be our neighbors? I’m looking at you, Bobby …

If only it didn’t cost $900 million dollars!

Wow… that joint is all kinds of awesome.

And large.

I’m going to make an offer as soon as I get my 2 million dollar bailout check.

Bobby, you’re not getting a bailout check. NASCAR fans got us into this damn mess.

Yup… too many people buying double-wides on a single-wide budget.

“Wouldn’t you like to be next?”…Why yes, I think I would.

I want to know if the 1150 bottles of wine come with the wine cellar. I mean, when one is paying 2 and half million dollars…

It seems reasonable, doesn’t it?

We’re going to the open house tomorrow – think they’ll let us pull a little something from the cellar to go with our snacks?

June, get out of my head. I, too, thought: “Why yes, I think I would.”
Is there room for negotiating on the furniture? Because my painted-desks-coffee-tables and Jason’s childhood dresser would look quite silly.

For some reason, even though the listing agent is OUR realtor, he refuses to cut us a deal and let us have this house for $600k.
Greedy.

I thought the same thing Sharolyn . The furniture is perfect, especially in the main rooms. Wow. It’ll be fun walking through it and pretending. Kind of like I used to do at the Dunsmir House in Oakland. Been there? Go at Christmas, it’s all decorated and gorgeous!

Gretchen, we do have that in common. Maybe when our girls are some years older we can take them there together. :)

So. How was it?
michael lee 4:55 pm on 13 February 2009 Permalink
Oh my holy crap buckets.
It was amazing. We’re going back on Sunday with G’s parents, if anyone wants to join us.
Gretchen 8:09 pm on 13 February 2009 Permalink
Really, really, really, really pretty. The lights are what kept inspiring me from room to room. The current owners have chosen really nice period pieces and the whole house just has that “wow” factor. It’s going to be great for somebody. A very rich somebody :)

BTW, Lee peoples – Do you need any assistance next weekend with fixing/moving/whatever?
Gretchen 9:15 pm on 13 February 2009 Permalink
yes please. Once we know our exact closing day (no it was NOT today,boo) we’ll have a pretty good plan/layout (my dad is in town :))and can send that info out. Thank you! I’d love to hang, see you, have you see our new hang…

Great! I’m pretty flexible Sat. thru Tuesday, so just let me know.
I’m so excited!
