[quote=“4DOORBABE,post:6,topic:34342"”] It is in East Otto…10 minutes from the end of the 219 in Springville. It is not a dirt road ANYMORE,what you are seeing is just the shoulder of the road. I am so excited and scared all at the same time. Buying a house is not like renting one…you can’t exactly pick up and move if things get to expensive. Oh well… [/quote] Cool. That is just down the street from my friend’s dad’s property. Where we play paintball. He’s right up next to the state land out there. Nice area. ---

Wow that place needs a lot of work, but looks like you got the funding for it which is very cool! It will be worth a lot more than 80K when you are finished with it. Doing most of the work yourself? With a new roof and siding it will look 100x better for sure. ---

Eesh. Looks like a ton of work. I hope you don’t find any major problems under the cosmetics. What did the home inspector say about the electricals? A good time to redo the home’s wiring is when you have to tear it up anyway, not after it’s already been redone. It’ll be awesome when it’s all done. Good luck! ---
