so we really like this building we're living in as far as location and space but its full of nothing but young, single tech nerds that never make eye contact or say anything..its only been 2 days but I'm betting the front desk job is a big turnover..my goal is to make people smile or just make them uncomfortable....

If you believe in ghosts, I would not recommend living in that house. If you do not believe in ghosts, it looks great!

the real estate agent said the buyer fell through and they're looking for a new buyer asap so contacted me. unfortunately, my situation is i need to see what i can sell my home for before making a legit offer on another home, and these sellers seem like they're in a hurry

We really don't even have to move. Situation is this: We bought our home for about 175k back in 2017, in this little known gated community 20 minutes out of town, which has grown in popularity since, with neighboring houses selling for a lot to rich people looking for fun vacation homes in a gated lake community. It's estimated we could sell for 280 to above 300k. IF THIS IS TRUE, we could make a killer profit and make a huge down payment on another house, lowering our monthly mortgage and having some change in the bank. We haven't really gotten the ball rolling to selling our home, but we're looking at what's available in the meantime. It's a process.
