BUT WINNER WINNER CHICKEN DINNER GOES TO NYC!

He makes 60k a year and has a mortgage and a car note.  10k in liquid savings and some bedroom cash for dinners with the wife. 

A lot of new investors buy old houses because they're 'cheap' and 'magically delicious old homes' not understanding the kind of expense involved.

I've been in houses with 30-40 year old stoves that still cook dinner just fine.

They have 30 beef cows, which are delicious.

Building a house from scratch will eat your lunch and your dinner if you don't have a solid background, great experience, and a really fantastic crew.

I'm heading out now to an engagement and then a home-buying celebration dinner with my GF, but I'll try to check back later for responses.

I do a lot of things that I consider fun and yet have very little (or no) monetary benefit -- dinners at nice restaurants, movies, vacations, flying airplanes, etc.But, just because I "waste" money on these things that don't provide me a financial return doesn't mean I'm not an entrepreneur.While I think playing the lottery is a ridiculous expenditure, for many people it's ultimately no different than any other enjoyable pastime.

Yea, was planning on paying for dinner and a few beers.

They want one buyer and close it out quickly as the faster they sell the more closings they get.Ask the listing broker for you to take him out to lunch or dinner YOUR TREAT and the broker can pick the time, place and location (make it as easy as possible for them and hard to say no to you).
