I am exhausted just thinking about this........See what I mean, money pit??
All joking aside, it is in a wonderful neighborhood and awesome schools! Great downtown area with many restaurants and shops all within walking distance, this is the reason why we bought it! Hopefully we can build some sweat equity, so in a couple of years when the market is better, we can turn around and sell.

It looks nice. I love that big open doorway. Owning a home is always a money pit, there is always something to fix!!

So will my room be ready in August? I am ready to walk to all those shops (window shopping only-our money pit STILL HASN"T SOLD). Sounds awesome. Can't wait to see it!

Hopefully we will plan our vaca soon.
