Real estate and real life oh my.

Ohhh what a day. Went off to look at houses with my parents and had a realtor follow us back to see what he thought we should price the house at. His pricing wasn’t quite as high as we had hoped considering the area we were in, but he’s quite right, it’s a buyer’s market, not a seller’s and we must price to sell. So with that our price range for houses got just a little lower, and now my parents spirits aren’t exactly soaring anymore. They’re even considering just sticking it out here. Which I think it a terrible, terrible idea. Especially when I move out, the upstairs will become a no-man’s land, and that’s just silly.

Anyway, on a lighter note, despite the lowered price range for houses, I did find 15 that were quite lovely and were still in the area. So things might not be so bad after all.

 

After that I had an…interesting dinner with my family from my father’s side. My uncle came up from North Carolina to come visit so we decided to hang out with him along with my aunt and my crazy grandmother. Happily my grandmother decided to cancel on dinner, so I didn’t have to deal with 2 hours of listening to her whine about the various diseases she doesn’t have. Instead I had a lively conversation with my Aunts and Uncles as they teased each other and my father. I learned quite a few interesting factoids about my father, that I rather wish I hadn’t learned. But still, knowledge is power as they say. ;]

 

Off to get more power
