It should be a rule, that if you still have christmas decorations up after, oh say, the 10th of january, I can burn your fucking house down.
Jumpin fucksticks take that shit down already
Our HOA and city laws are the 7th.

"Gummy" "Patchy"Just realized that, in naming my dogs Smokey and Chewie, I'm kinda obligated to name the next one "Stogie" or "Vapey".
Sometimes consistency in naming has unintended consequences.
"Bongo" or "Roachy" are on the table as well."Gummy" "Patchy"
Whatever you buy, make sure it doesn't need a new roof, or any kind of roof work. Or a new heating system for that matter.

Most houses can be kept from falling down with enough duct tape, used particle board and 3 penny nails.Pay special attention to this @august
Foundation, roofs, heating/cooling, are huge money. That and major or long term water damage, such as a slow drip that went unnoticed for a long time and has now rotted framing/subfloor behind/under a bathtub, etc.
Other more cosmetic/inconvenience type problems can be taken care of a little at a time, not such a huge outlay of $$ all at once.
Good windows are also expensive.

Way to dream big, buddy.I want a stone mansion with three garden patios, a hedge maze and a rooftop pool.
And it comes with a lifetime supply of pizza pockets.
Probably just has to close. After that, they'll have to go through the approval process again.What's the 3 month window? Do you physically have to be living in somewhere in 3 months or in the process?
my lease is up at the end of may, so I have a little leeway there, but my preapproval is good for 4 months, and it can take like a month to settle on a price and close and all, so if I don't have it done in that timeframe, I have to get re-preapproved which means another hit on my credit because of another hard inquiry so I will end up with a higher interest rateWhat's the 3 month window?

Yeah that's super quick. After the housing bubble they have all these new stupid rules from Fannie and Freddie for everything that causes stupid delays in underwriting. Plus I don't know about where she lives but we like a lot of states have a shortage of appraisers and inspectors which is cause some delays as well.We closed in about 45, and that was exceptionally quick.
I love rotted subfloors. When the toilet's only supported by the flange, it's like shitting on the high seas.Pay special attention to this @august

Or considerably more.
We did something like 1%. That's why I was willing to jerk the mortgage lender around on page numbers.And for the earnest money @august I would just ask your realtor what the usual is for your area. It's usually a certain percentage of the purchase price. Or a couple thousand dollars.
