Boomer.... you are hilarious....."fox par" ????? :dontknow: : 1rnfl 040 024

I agree with you that the first attempt should be FSBO with an atty overseeing. In 2002 when I purchased. I first went via TV Sales Office; was escorted around to ALL new homes. I requested to look at resales and was told they only had ONE; was shown it and it was a mess.

I then went to SS, bought the Sun, perused the HOMES FOR SALE classifieds; circled three that seemed to fit my criteria. The very first one that I called had my name on it; I LOVED IT!! Put a deposit then and there and shortly thereafter, it was my home.

The home was a year old with all the bells & whistles with extras I would have never considered. The couple selling had put the best of everything and then some with the intention of spending the rest of their lives there. After a year there, they decided that they wanted to upgrade to a larger home. Lucky break for me that I was there at the right time and place. The couple are living just a few streets away and we are dear friends because of it all.
