I just spoke with the friend of the guy who bought the house next door. The guy next door who saw my place yesterday loves my place and is now thinking about selling the house next door and buying mine!! However, what he is able to pay me is lower than what I am asking. The friend said he can kick in $5 towards the offer too. So it would come to $85K. I need to crunch some numbers and see if that would work for me.
I also told the friend I would need to stay here for about 3 months after closing in order to find an RV and get that set up, etc. He said that would probably be fine since the guy next door isn't planning to come back here until sometime in October anyways.
The friend owns a place here, and his sister and BIL own the house on the other side. He also has a brother who owns a couple places here and is a former client of mine. He said he will talk to his BIL and maybe they could go together to buy the house next door from this guy and turn it into a rental. I told him I would get back to him in a few days and we would see where things are at.
My heart is racing right now! I have a lot of thinking and number crunching to do to see if we can make this work. I just don't see an opportunity like this happening again for quite awhile and I really want to get moving on my plans.
OK, I need to go think now...
