We're buying a house!

[JeepFreak21]

From experience DO ALL YOUR PAINTING BEFORE YOU MOVE IN... even if you have to sleep in the garage for a week or two. It is such a PIA moving furniture around as you do a room, doubles the time.. Oh, that includes the garage floor painting too. Owning a house on your own property is great.

Yeah, we were debating about that. We have time to do it, so I think we will. There isn't much that needs painting though.
Thanks,
Billy

Congrats!
Nice House.

Looking at the steep driveway, you might wanna think about mounting a winch inside your new garage for pulling in your project's.

Oh, and just so you know what you're getting into :laugh3:... we have a couch, loveseat, chair, small kitchen table, 2 mattress/boxspring sets, a 32" tv, a desk, and a few other little things. No stairs and we're going from Citrus Heights (Antelope and Sunrise) to Sacramento (HWY 50 @ Bradshaw). I can get a flatbed trailer and I'm working on a pickup to pull it.
Thanks!
Billy :wave:

Billy, if I remember, I'll call you Monday whenever I get off work and see if you need a hand then.

what kinda prices are houses there? i get a little over $16 an hour and I can't afford a house here in eureka. crack shacks are going for nearly 200k! i like california, but i dont think i will be able to buy a house here without a change in career...i guess being single is the real limiting factor.

Yeah, prices are insane. We bought ours for $345k! :shocked:... I couldn't ever have done it without my wife's income.
