Conga Rats!! Now you have a mortgage, and you get to pay property taxes... and then there's maintenance, upkeep, & repairs... oh honey let's just remodel here, and here...

j/k, buying a home is one of the best investments you can make. Good for you!

Congratulations dude! That's a really nice house!

It'll be fun to put your own personal touches on it to make it yours.......PLEASE start by taking down the stupid stuff they are using for bedroom curtains!

That drives me insane when people have such a nice place and then do stuff like that to it.

Nice house!

Good time to buy too. The market's got nowhere to go but up.

You didn't get a yard big enough to put all of your yota junk in the back.

That house looks HUGE compared to ours and its 1650sq ft.

ya i am pretty much hosed when it comes to electrical at this house. there is no attic, and it is slab on grade so i will be having to tear out sheetrock to add stuff. depending on the panel size i might change it to a 200 amp before we move in.

first thing on the list is to change locks, then we are gonna repaint the whole house, then we will be changing all the floor to wood. i am also gonna change all of the fixtures, lights and faucets. it has polished brass light fixture and i hate them. amanda wants rubbed bronze plumbing fixtures. i want to put the side yard in concrete and pour a driveway out to the street. that will have to wait though. we have about 20k to do all the upgrades so we'll see how far we get. the floors alone are gonna be about 7 grand with me installing them. i also bought epoxy coat for the garage floor and a wall of cabinets for the garage. each cabinet is 48wx21dx80t and i bought 4 of them.
