i am NOT exspecting the tucson market to shoot up again. i only exspect it to stabilize (i.e. reasonable days on market with a reasonable asking cost= sale when we need it to in the next 2ish years) i've been looking in the east, central and some south and have looked at well over 60 homes in the last week. mostly with kids in tow. so far the 3-4 homes that we've seriously considered have been a lennar home (brand new on valencia/alvernon), 2 on swan/22nd area and one in the irvington/kold area. we submitted an offer yesterday on a valentine st. prop but it was counteroffered and the offer we put in was our max. price so that one wasn't doable. we are submitting another offer tomorrow on a 27th st. home thats fairly nice and hopeing to get it for $146k w/all fees paid, no money down. unfortuneatly the military takes care of us but its a really hard challenge to get ahead on one income and no way to (realisticly) earn extra income. which is why everyone should support military discounts!!

Whether it's a screen saver on your computer, a list on your fridge, or a piece of paper on the wall in front of you by your desk, the important thing is to read them each and everyday.

We did fix that oven opening, we moved the outlet over so the oven could fit tight against the wall.

If they fell into the trap of an "option ARM", they may be about to hit the wall.

Kind of a pack rat, but not punching holes in the wall or anything.Sorry for the rant, and thanks for the helpSteve

Is there wiring behind those walls?

But I think if you give them too much, it could also make them ask questions for things where maybe you didn't touch anything - "why aren't you showing pictures of what's behind every wall" type of stuff.

The ceiling is about 20' in the one living room so theres a ton of wall space, plus the ceiling have cracks and a lot of speckling needs to be done.

I know how many children he has, all of their names, His cats names, what he wants to do with the rest of his life, what he wants to do with the money from the sale of the house, He let me try on his bulletproof vest, let me hold a piece of the berlin wall and a coin he had from Nazi Germany, ect ect. 

There's a pretty solid vertical crack in the back of house in the garage (see picture attached) and the rest of that wall seems to be crumbling a bit.
