BBV in MTT - Closed On a House Today (Totally Not Even Close to OT)

Jurollo · #1 10-19-2007, 11:51 AM

Brag: Bought a house in cash today, no mortgage for a 24 yr old, woo!
Beat: The inside of it currently looks like downtown Troy, NY (it needs some work)
Variance: It just so happens to be directly next to my brother's house, Rollo poker compound?

I will add that with the Sox win and USF loss (Go BC) last night I am a pretty happy dude today.

Yeah, I'm not at all jealous.

Grats!

In about 3 months when I have renovated the place

Hmmm. We bought a house on Monday, moving a week from today. 3300 Square feet, not including 1100 sq foot, unfinished basement (or future poker palace, depending on your point of view). Also sprung for a 57 inch High Def TV for the Bonus room.

So I'm stoked.

Also mortgaged up to my eyeballs...

'grats, Justin - only a few better feelings than sleeping in your own place for the first time. (That's coming from somebody who shares ownership with a bank... Must be awesome to know it's 'all yours').

You gonna do a Barry Greensteinesque video tour?

OT

Congratulations! I just ran across this epic thread in OOT - maybe you should consider getting one of these.

Well I am planning to video journal the entire renovation process along the way and post it to my blog as well as probably starting a thread in EDF and explaining the budgeting issues I run into, etc, etc. The current plan is to stay there till the market turns enough to sell it and then do this again. So looking forward to the whole process, demo starts monday.
