RE: A New Steem Space? (Moving to an old house in the country to practice a more self-directed, anarchic lifestyle)

in #steemit7 years ago

I would check to see if the roof leaks and look for evidence of rodent problems. It’s no fun living with water and rats in the house. And since you mentioned some sagging areas, you might want to ask yourself if the house will still be liveable in five years. Moving isn’t fun to do over and over again and if the house doesn’t have a long life left, maybe there is a better one available in the same area.

Sort:  

The roof seemed pretty good, and when we talked to the landlord she said it was in solid condition. As for rats, yuck. I’ll have to check for signs of that next time we are there.

Lots of concerns, indeed.

I only mention the rats because of the problem we had. It definitely wasn’t fun or a winnable situation.
