Maybe just summering....Wait a minute.......I thought you were moving back?????
That's not my writingGary, glad your plans are "written in snow", instead of stone!
Only if the place we put an earnest money on falls thruWait a minute.......I thought you were moving back?????
It all depends on how things come together with the little cottage we put an earnest money onGary, have you guys now decided to stay in town?
It's coming to thatGary, have you guys now decided to stay in town?
I may need to hire an elf

A bit of an update;It all depends on how things come together with the little cottage we put an earnest money on
Inspections have revealed some things
The onus is on the owner, as he's getting bids
If he can't afford repairs, then, yeah, we'll head to the cabin around May
Gary,A bit of an update;
Looks like the owner has got this
He will move out the closing date a month or so
And that's OK by me
Thing is, they need to live there while their house is being built
Of which we'll charge them rent until they move
That's OK too...unless that eats up the summer
We'll look at the addendum in a couple days
There needs to be some stipulations, limits
As for my avian abodes, I'll be seeing how the sales are next week when the avian club swoops in.
My latest got even more convoluted, with roots going in one side of the roof, and out the other.
I may not sell it

My realtor had to use that to get the then owners out and it worked.possibly hold back an escrow amount at closing to be forfeited if they do not move out by the date specified in your agreement.
I heard back from my brokerGary,
Try to build in a substantial penalty/rent increase or possibly hold back an escrow amount at closing to be forfeited if they do not move out by the date specified in your agreement. You don't have to follow through but it will send the message that you are serious about the date.
Good luck!
Re: avian abode......Mebbe ye could charge by the pound?I heard back from my broker
Nix on the rent scenario
Our lender is not good with it
I wasn't either
The seller has finally hired a contractor to do all the repairs/upgrades, and the closing date has moved out to March 31
Glad it wasn't any later
If they'd requested June, we'd need a whole new appraisal
Latest avian abode;
The root perch is a tad heavy, so it'll go on a post (it was an experiment, of which I'm not gaga over)
