"New" cabin!
My parents never keep me in the loop! We have a cabin at the lake which takes 20 minutes to get to from my parents' house. I love the lake but the cabin is pretty terrible It's just an old 2-bedroom mobile home from the 60's that has a living room added on the side. It was pretty disgusting when we got it but we worked very hard to basically gut it and get it to a point where it's at least comfortable to stay in for a few days! But my parents have always wanted to build something nicer out there when they got the money for it.
Well, a couple weeks ago I talked to my mom and they were at a family friends' new farm and there was an older farmhouse on the property that belonged to the guy's parents. They took my parents for a tour... it's two story, 3 bedrooms (or maybe 4..), new electrical and in really good shape! They went it moved off the property and are only asking 10,000 for it! I was like "So when are you getting it?" But my mom said "Oh we just looked at it, we didn't say we want it" .... Fast forward to this week and I was talking to my dad and he said he was just cleaning the house because a guy was coming to appraise it. I asked why and he said "Well our loan went through for that cabin but we need to have our property appraised before we buy it" YAY!!!!! Another guy is going to drive out to our lot at the lake to give an esitmate on moving it. If we get it out there by the summer I am going to be driving out there a lot I love redecorating and fixing up houses! I can't wait!
