Over the past eight months while this blog has had no activity, I have in fact been doing two very important parts of production; making money and watching the real estate listings.
Finally there appeared a piece of land in a perfect location, which filled our criteria, and fit our budget, so we decided we would go forth with the steps to make an offer.
Well a few days ago a new listing appeared in the online MLS. It was half a mile from the other parcel we were watching, had more appealing terrain, much quiette
r neighboring land, and cost half as much. It looked promising through my computer screen through the lens of the camera through the window of the airplane that was taking online map photos for Microsoft live maps. But in order to really get a feel for it, I had to walk it with my own feet (in boots, through the mud and snow). I drove up there and rather than walking it, I ended up running it, dancing it, skipping it, and jumping it. It felt perfect. We made our offer the next day, and today it has been accepted.We stipulated 30 days to perform due dilligence, so (spoiler alert) the next 30 days of posts will be just that, because very much dilligence is due (more on that later).
