March 20, 2010: Offer on House











We are making an offer on this house. It is in the town of Plymouth, which has the third best school district in the state. The last purchase price of this home was $450,000, and it is now bank-owned and cheap. Not including the unfinished basement, the home is 2334 square feet--5 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms. It was built in 1900 and has lots of character. The only negative is that the house is on a main road (like 5 lanes?) and you can easily hear the cars go by while inside. Here are some pictures of the first floor (with hardwoods), the entryway (which looks like a sunroom), and the outside of the house. If we get it, it needs lots of work--a totally new roof, repair of balcony, backyard fence, and some (lots) structural and decorative remodeling inside. The roof is BAD. The house is currently listed for $114,900, and we are offering around $80,000. We'll see!
