6503- email post - preferred condo denied

It seems the seller wants hang on to it for a while,so we'll need to move on.
The place just won't appraise out to the amount she's asking for.

Next place to check out will be Garden Terrace. Not sure if I'll offer on it or
not...Much roomier (a 2-bedroom), but may need more hard work.

No hard feelings on it either way... it would've been nice, but I'm only going to go fair market value.

When I don't get something like that - I like to believe there is a reason it wasn't meant for me. Mebbe you'll find one next that knocks your socks off at fair market. :0)

Sounds good to me!!

I figure that there are a gazillion homes on the market... I'll find one that I fit into easily enough. It'll become mine once I move in, but until then, it's just shopping.

I've found that most of the places I look at are a struck balance... roomy, but needs a lot of work (my current look), I really want a place with a washer and dryer, decent amounts of room, permits me to have Newt, and is a fairly close distance to a grocer and the bus routes.

Have any of them had any backyard space? For your adirondack chair (I think that's what you said you had outside at some point) & herbs and stuff.

oh, a lot of them have some room... (but the sweet, sweet wooden adirondack chair was swiped by workmen! I plan on having another one once I relocate.)

Fortunately, the patches of moonflower & sweetalyssum are still growing strong.. though the local outdoor kitties have gobbled up Newt's catgrass. (I'm going to have to find some way to shield it with a screen when I plant it next time.) or leave a little out for the visitors, and the rest under cover.
