Literally closing escrow next weekend.

I’m grateful she took such good care of the house. When I stepped inside I immediately knew it had good bones. Built in the early 80’s, I had a very thorough inspection done, and that guy was blown away. So I feel good about my purchase.

For whatever reason, we were the only offer after she was on market for 90 days. No idea why, and I spoke to a lot of people about the area, the land, just everything.

Patched CAT6 cable to nearly every room in the house. WIFI is good these days but still cant compete with good ol ethernet.

My apartment used to be owned by a landlord cop who moved to Florida. So I appreciate that he reduced the population of landlord cops in my area by 1

In my last house, the previous owners left a folder with information about various known quirks, which came in handy. They also left manuals for things like the stove and fireplace, as well as contact info for contractors they had used over the years. It ended up being a sort of owner’s manual for the house that we really appreciated. We did the same when we moved out.

My current house… There’s an under-cabinet CD player/radio in the kitchen that I almost never use, and the previous owners left the soundtrack to the Trolls movie in it, so I guess there’s that?
