I am no longer a property owner in Texas! Yeeee Hawwww! |
|
We closed on the sale of our Dallas house this afternoon. What a relief! We have a lease back through 4/30 to coincide with Mrs. Ds office lease expiration.
I'll be hitting the road back to NC in a couple of days.

11. +33% over eight years ... |
|
But we had to put a lot into the house too. We probably came out slightly ahead. At least we didn't lose money.

3. Perhaps If the GOP eventually gets it's way... |
|
Only land property owners will be allowed the vote... (I've heard this brought up on RW radio several times)
Of course, I'm not sure how they would prevent people from owning 1 foot square "properties".

7. It's often brought up when you have two properties in two distinct locales |
|
Since you typically can only vote in one jurisdiction, you can only vote where one property is located - it's the old taxation without representation argument...but that could be extended to lots of things (Like when you live in state X, but go to state Y and pay sales tax)

I escaped Texas in 1979, and have only been back twice. Now invade North Carolina and bring them Democracy! ;-)

Seems I remember that you are selling a house too. Our Dallas house had been on and off the market for over three years. Actually, it has been off the market since last April. I guy called me in NC several weeks ago and wanted to know if I'd sell. We dealt direct (no realtor). It was a sweet deal for both of us. Good luck to you. The last few days before closing are the worst.

15. I am so happy for you! |
|
And happy that it has been a sweet deal! My house is under agreement as of about two weeks ago...two young kids (by my standards!) she is expecting her first child. I can't tell you how much that pleases me!! But it's never over till it's over and I wish you well and I'll be thinking of you! :hi:
