Shitty Shit

Does anyone have 1.8 million to spend on a cute little bungalow by the beach? (What? Too much? But the owner re-introduced it to the market for $80,000 less! C’MON! WIMPS!)

Great! Could you buy it and continue to rent it to a very nice couple with a very big baby?

Thanks a million.

    Oh, no! Not again! Gah. I’m really sorry.

    We have a second bedroom in the new place.

    Hopefully $80,000 less wont be that much of an enticement to buyers.

    Ohhh, I’m sorry! It sounded like Mr. Greedy Landlord gave up on his quest.

    Gaw, that’s a lot of money… even with a whole $80k reduction.

    That’s totally shitty. I hope you find a much better house, so you won’t even miss this one.

    Only $80K less?

    I think you’re totally safe. This is the WORST time to sell, especially for an asking price like that.

    Perhaps he could be enticed to sell it to you guys for a batch of Whoorlgaritas?

    There’s a house for sale in Windsor Square (fancy LA neighborhood) that I drive by frequently. It’s gorgeous and it’s for sale and I totally want to go to one of the open houses just to dream. But one day I saw a new for sale sign as I drove by. “REDUCED! $100,000!” Yeah, my father’s house is twice as big as this one and cost $90,000. And yes, he has to live in OHIO, but sweet baby Jesus. I do NOT want to know what their asking price is that they could knock off a hundred grand.

    Oh, I know it won’t sell. I’m more concerned with the constant barrage of realtors traipsing through the house while Wito’s napping, the “last-minute” showings on the weekends, etc…it’s cool, we’re officially actively looking as of today.

    Wait. Was there some sort of picture on this entry that I can’t see because my employer has blocked my ability to see internet images? Like, Flickr, specifically?

    Because if there’s not a picture, I don’t get how people knew that something was wrong. I was just imagining that you wanted to live by the beach. In a bungalow.

    Am so desperately confused.

    Hey Jes! So yeah, we already live in the bungalow by the beach. And it’s perfect. And we love it. And our landlord is attempting to sell it for the second time- I wrote about it last year when he tried to sell it for the first time…so that’s how people knew something was wrong. WILL YOU GET WITH IT?! I MEAN, HOW DARE YOU NOT REMEMBER THE DETAILED INTRICACIES OF MY LIFE?!

    Good luck with the search…it took us an eternity but we found a house we loved…the market is great for renters trying to buy, not only are prices dropping, you also don’t have to sell your house. Use that when you negotiate!
