The power went out for a short while this morning. Sucks in this heat but did not last for long.
On the other hand, that was the kick in the p[ants I needed to get moving and get my final official tasks done. Semi-organize and clean the workshop. Sweep, mop and lay another coat of polish in a few places.
Now I am sitting here with nothing to do in an empty house. There are some things I could be doing but most of it is outside, so not doing that right now.
I contacted another investor or two and posted an ad on CL aimed at investors. One company says they will make an offer within 24 hours, close within 3 days. The guy I have been talking to said he will get back to me this evening. Either send someone for a physical inspection or he will be in town this week and do it himself. Understandable and expected. I'm more comfortable with having investors come in and look rather than hordes of people come in and make stupid comments and unrealistic offers for weeks.
I am SO ready to be done with this state! I want out!
In any case, today is the first true day off I have had in weeks. I have been working continuously on the house. I don't want to do any more.
I probably will do more if I will be here more than a couple of days. Mostly in the yard. There isn't much more I can do with the house itself.
Just an update-
Not really getting responses from buyers yet. WTF? It's Tuesday. But this is New Mexico. Expecting people to do their damn job seems unrealistic here. They call themselves investors but don't seem able to invest enough time to make a phone call.
Maybe the problem is that I have already advised them that I am NOT desperate. These people are vultures feeding on those who are under threat of foreclosure and stuff like that. If they can't screw you, they don't want to talk to you.
