Well the guy selling the house was very pushy. He said on Thursday that he needed an offer that night or he would continue with renovations. I said fine, I won't take it. Today he was still asking my realtor if I want it. That's just too pushy for me though. I told the realtor I would rather go with a condo, unless I could find a great house in a great area without much work needed... although in my price range I doubted I could find that. Just a few minutes later I came across a listing for a cute little house in a good area, 18 years newer than the last one, with a brand new furnace, new flooring, and new electrical. It also has a pretty new fence with a nice yard and garden. It's at least worth a look!
I agree with the cost of renovations. Cosmetic renovations I can do pretty cheaply because I have found a bazillion ads for people who bought materials like flooring and then only used half and are selling the rest of it for half price. However, the less work the better!
