Happy New Year! We're hunkering down for real winter too. We've been lucky so far in this part of the country but January always brings the subzero chill.
Have you every heard about this book? Our son is about to buy his first house and has shown an interest in gardening so we bought it for him for Christmas. I liked it so much I bought us a copy.
I have not seen that one, but it looks really useful. Everything you need to know. Thanks for the heads up.
My daughter is on the brink of "buying" (borrowing enough money to buy) her first house too. I went to see it, and it has a great yard for veggie gardening, not that she has any interest in that. But at least she will have the potential, and a mother to support her. . No contract signed though. She lost confidence in her realtor, and pulled out. She hopes to go back in with a new realtor.
I spent one uneventful but restful night in Columbus a few nights ago. Thought of you!
Happy Happy New Year!! It looks to be a rough ride for all of us, so hang on!
You're welcome! It really is a good resource.
I wish your daughter the best of luck. It's a tricky market. Our son hasn't made any offers yet and still thinks he wants to be in the city. We're trying to talk him into buying a house with some land on the outskirts.
Where did you stay in Columbus? I plan on coming back within the next month or so to spend time with Mom.
Thanks! I have the same feeling about 2024. It's more important than every to be as prepared as possible and grounded.
I stayed here. I think it was on the NE side of the city, very near the airport. I didn't do anything other than grab some Greek fries at the corner bar.
