not to be mean but where there any crackheads or homeless people living in ther before?

But good luck man needs some windows though.

I'm jealous...sort of. I bought and old house and fixed it up. I did almost everything myself. It turned out really well and I learned a lot. I had never done any of this stuff before. I enjoyed it and it was incredibly satisfying, but OMG was it a ton of work that dragged on forever! Best of luck. Make sure you post the 'after' photos.

can a day light pic be taken? lol hope it turns out well

Awesome... it's going to look beautiful with some work put in it

[Paolino]

Oh, and congrats!!

A house is a house... God's not making any more real estate

you know. Congrats and good luck. Looks like you have

your work ahead of you. With any luck you'll double the value

of the place just by repairing the basics.

Why do I hear spooky organ music when I look at the picture? The lighting in that photo is perfect for a slasher movie poster.

As far as the house goes, I'd love to be able to own a place like that and have unlimited time, resources and talent to make it a showplace. Best of luck, fosure!

THough I have to say it looks good,,and should look better with a little work....

Congats on the new house...

I also live in a nice older house. Have lived here since 1978. Just found out on July 5th that the state is buying the house and tearing it down to make way for a right turn lane(I live on a busy corner and trucks have a very hard time with it). We have practiclly rebuilt it, put a nice 3-car garage and a 12 by 12 feet shed. All the house was needing was some new windows. Otherwise it is practiclly like new. Our hope now is to get something new since finding anything used with the things we have is nearly inpossible. Only bad thing is the lot is not the greatest. We live on a hill and cutting it is a pain.

They're taking your house eminent domain? That blows, especially after all that work. Make sure they pay you exactly what the place is worth!
