Twenty eight posts and no one has asked "the" question: Are you going to pay off the mortgage early?
Sounds like a really great place. Hope you really enjoy living there.
Are you sure that's a good idea?I bet there is no mortgage to pay off.
Right. ALthough I have generally been pro-mortgage in our debates, this seller, an older woman who wants to leave the city before Christmas wanted to be sure she had a solid deal, and many mortgage borrower wannabes are getting denied. So I got an additional discount, and of course saved the costs and annoyance associated with a mortgage. Ordinarily I like to hold on to cash, but I would have kept this very safe, and the interest saved is worth more than any interest I would have received on CDs. Also, this is a small deal, and so the mortgage interest deduction would have been little or nothing to me anyway.I bet there is no mortgage to pay off.
I Just checked =roughly a mile to the downtown main library, also to the branch library that I now use. I will likely start picking up my hold books downtown, as there are many more newspapers and periodicals that I can read there too.There are many find Seattle neighborhoods, glad you found a place in one you like. How far to the library? That's always my question.....
Anyway, cash deals are always quick and clean.
I have a neighbor who is moving to a condo, and even though he has great credit and a lot of money, the bank jerked him around on closing.
My sons work way too hard for me to want to burden them with a move, even though I don't have much stuff.I am assuming you have help to move your furniture and belongings. If not, maybe someone at the new place can recommend a low cost local mover.
I have to call them to get the contact info for that outfit. I feel bad for the male part of the couple who used to live across the hall, he was married to the sexiest (and most flirtatious) 35 year old babe that I ever have met. He was just too unwilling to get off the couch and give her some more exciting entertainment. She wanted to dance, go to clubs, he wanted to read. So 4 months after they moved they are already divorced, after like 10 years of marriage. He might be alone a long time; she about 14 minutes.
Ha
So, I am excited which is not my normal state.
