Then I received a letter from the HOA Board's lawyers, giving the gardeners 45 days to tear out everything we had installed and reduce the garden to a pre-existing condition (similar to scorched earth).

I stick with the neutral/earth tones to avoid being gender specific..my tenant love it , I do allow them to paint if they like or even do a highlight wall, knowing they have to bring it back to a neutral color upon move out

Why on earth does he think anyone would want the land if not to build on it?

Mike builds a gazebo that is actually on Molly’s side of the property, covering about ten square feet of earth.

Chris is very genuine and down to earth.

I can tell you "life on earth will end some day" with confidence, but will it happen in the next 12 months - I am not so sure. 

I like him because he's down to earth, straightforward and responsive. 

As @Joe Splitrock mentioned, this is odd, but this kind of oddity is almost a standard feature of real estate -- the unexpected happens and you have to be ready for the earth beneath you to shift at any time, prepared for the unlikely, braced for the impossible.

The speaker was saying that the trend where decorating consisted of using earth tone colors has long passed and the new trend is to go with gray colors and everything should be square like kitchen cabinet doors are not flush and square, door knobs and handles are now square, bathroom towel racks are square, paint on walls is gray fencing in not longer vertical and everyone is going with horizontal wood fencing, outside walls on properties is gray.Personally, I disagree with the decorating and I hate gray walls inside a house with a passion.

This is a huge financial decision and I'm terrified of making a mistake: spending money I don't have to buy an investment or passing up a great investment opportunity, hence it's worth moving heaven and earth for an extra $5,000.
