1. I have a new tenant moving into my little cottage. Huzzah! He seems fabulous, and is really excited about the house and the area.
2. The house on one side is for sale. I don't really like the building, but the yard is FANTASTIC. Too bad it's overpriced, and therefore I'm not buying it.
3. The house on the OTHER side is foreclosed and has a lockbox on the door. No listing as of yet, but it'll come on soon. I'd seriously consider this one if it were priced right. The deferred maintenance is crazy (and it has all of ZERO curb appeal,) but I'm confident that I could transform it. It's got great bones.
4. I toured a $20k Victorian today, a couple blocks away. It's actually not on the demo list, nor the chapter 249. (Dang, if only I were a millionaire NOW... I'd buy ALL these places!)
5. The sunset over Theo Wirth Parkway is PHENOMENAL.
6. Only one more day until the election. Thank heavens... I want this to be over. (Though I think it's pretty cool that the old Bean Scene on Penn/Bro is currently serving as an Obama campaign office.)

This is totally late, but I am glad i am not the only one who has "old house fever". I bought a Queen Anne on the edge of the 'hood and I bought the bungalow next to me last year. I just put another offer in on the foreclosed bungalow on the other side of me this week. Sigh... But, you know what, if we don't do something about it, NO ONE ELSE WILL!
:-D Congrats on your recent purchase.
