Ms. Spam 1,903 Posted August 10, 2020 Share Posted August 10, 2020 https://www.zillow.com/homedetails/330-Joe-Blanks-St-San-Antonio-TX-78237/102521052_zpid/ The houses next door are far older and do not have good upkeep and the property taxes are freaking me out. And it's in an area that is up and coming so I may never get a house like this at this price. It's closer to school. There's two parks and the place across the street is a green belt. It's not close to anything though for shopping that I could see. I don't know. But i need more room. Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Posted August 10, 2020 Share Posted August 10, 2020 Looks really nice! I hope you get it. Link to post Share on other sites
Iceheart 2,059 Posted August 10, 2020 Share Posted August 10, 2020 That is ADORABLE! My fingers are crossed for you! I live a good 10-15 minute drive from any shopping, and you get used to it. You just plot out one big trip each week to hit multiple stores at once, mostly. Link to post Share on other sites
Ms. Spam 1,903 Posted August 10, 2020 Author Share Posted August 10, 2020 My sister will be living with me and she's strictly bus line only. We will see. HA! Link to post Share on other sites
Iceheart 2,059 Posted August 10, 2020 Share Posted August 10, 2020 Is it on a bus line? Honestly, not a lot of places to go will probably be good for her. Link to post Share on other sites
Ms. Spam 1,903 Posted August 10, 2020 Author Share Posted August 10, 2020 Yeah. I don't want her to drive yet. She is getting over a DWI. HAHA. Not in my car is the answer to can I go out? Link to post Share on other sites
Metropolis 722 Posted August 10, 2020 Share Posted August 10, 2020 A Craftsman like that around here would go for almost double. Link to post Share on other sites

Destiny Skywalker 2,136 Posted August 11, 2020 Share Posted August 11, 2020 That is super cute! Did you get it? I see it is Pending. Link to post Share on other sites
Ms. Spam 1,903 Posted August 11, 2020 Author Share Posted August 11, 2020 I didn't get it. My realtor and I were playing phone tag but if financing falls through I am next up. HA. It's too much to want to move in my schedule right now anyways. But that price and the 10 year home warranty was too much of a good deal. Link to post Share on other sites
Iceheart 2,059 Posted August 11, 2020 Share Posted August 11, 2020 Awww, my fingers are still crossed for you that the first deal falls through! Link to post Share on other sites
Ms. Spam 1,903 Posted August 18, 2020 Author Share Posted August 18, 2020 New adorableness that I like a lot but not with AC window units. https://www.zillow.com/homedetails/1326-W-Rosewood-Ave-San-Antonio-TX-78201/26127926_zpid/? Link to post Share on other sites
Iceheart 2,059 Posted August 18, 2020 Share Posted August 18, 2020 Window units are an easy, if not cheap, fix. You could make putting in AC a condition of purchase if you negotiate well. Link to post Share on other sites
Ms. Spam 1,903 Posted August 19, 2020 Author Share Posted August 19, 2020 It's just so retro. I showed it to my sister and she said, ew. HAHAHA Link to post Share on other sites
Iceheart 2,059 Posted August 19, 2020 Share Posted August 19, 2020 It's definitely a fixer-upper. The floors look pretty nice, but I'd be re-doing everything else if I bought it. Link to post Share on other sites
Jedigoat 432 Posted August 19, 2020 Share Posted August 19, 2020 The backyard looks big! That would be a big plus for me. Link to post Share on other sites
Iceheart 2,059 Posted August 19, 2020 Share Posted August 19, 2020 Same. You could even put in an above-ground pool and deck with that space! Link to post Share on other sites
Darth Ender 485 Posted August 19, 2020 Share Posted August 19, 2020 I am just amazed at the price! That would be double here in Denver. Link to post Share on other sites

Ms. Spam 1,903 Posted August 20, 2020 Author Share Posted August 20, 2020 OMG I would love to live in Seattle with my sister but I can't on a teachers salary. It's why I live where I live. More buying power. I will keep searching! HA! Link to post Share on other sites
Zathras 643 Posted August 20, 2020 Share Posted August 20, 2020 Window units are an easy, if not cheap, fix. You could make putting in AC a condition of purchase if you negotiate well.Personally, I would spend more and go with ductless AC, because it would help with resale in most cases. Carrier and Mitsubishi have a good reputation for ductless. Home Depot has a variety of brands and can install for you. Link to post Share on other sites
Ms. Spam 1,903 Posted August 20, 2020 Author Share Posted August 20, 2020 This one has been added to the list but it's EVEN smaller. https://www.zillow.com/homedetails/111-Sage-Dr-San-Antonio-TX-78228/26240744_zpid/? Link to post Share on other sites
Iceheart 2,059 Posted August 20, 2020 Share Posted August 20, 2020 That's like the opposite of the other one. The inside looks quite nice already, but that exterior needs a lot of love. Link to post Share on other sites
Ms. Spam 1,903 Posted August 20, 2020 Author Share Posted August 20, 2020 Yeah, totes needs lots of yard love. And some curb appeal. I love the storage room in the back of the yard. Link to post Share on other sites
