finally was able to buy a house

[brandon64]

Well I've been trying for several months to qualify to purchase a house. I finally found one that I qualified for!! I only have pictures of the important part, The basement/garage. I got the polara moved in last night, and I finally have a place to perform the two door conversion. Next week end My 68 dart will come out of my storage unit and take its place in the new garage and the mustang will be put outside. upstairs has 3 bedrooms and 950 square feet. It needs a bit of work, but it's all stuff that I'm capable of. and the price was right at 42,000, owner terms, 835 a month.

Thanks guys, Heres some pics of the outside. It sits on about an acre and a half at the end of a dead end street. I had to put 1,300 down on it.

2 door conversion? Now that's a thread I can't wait to see! Make sure you start a thread to that end!

Congrats on a great buy. Now get busy on that Polara . LOL

 

[Meep-Meep]

That's a cool little house! And for $42K????!!! Around my parts that would be a misprint or like hitit says, a down payment. Congrats!

Congrats!! I remember the first night I owned my house, I trailered my race car over to the house and put it in the garage before I did anything else. What a sweet moment that was. I was 23 and sold a bunch of my cars to afford the down payment. Congrats again.

Yep congrats on the house, looks like a bargain. In my area 42 k as stated by others above would barely get you the dwn payment.

It is a very good feeling, I'm 22 years old and this is my first house.

In good condition the house would appraise for approximately 65k. But it needs carpet, paint, and has a bunch of electrical issues(old wiring) as well as some many smaller things that need some attention.

An average house in the middle Tennessee area usually runs between 50-120k. so even for the area I got a steal!!!

Congrats, looks like a great starting point. Nice size shop with heat on an acre plus, with todays interest rates that looks like a deal to me, good luck with it.
