Day 2 House 1

Today we went house shopping again. The first house we were looking at was listed for $299k. It was located close to one of Kit Kat's school friends. It was a short sale.

Here are the good features we found:

• Had a fireplace
• Laundry was on the main floor
• Back yard had a full privacy fence installed
• The garage was very deep (long)
• Window to back yard was a bay window
• Good sized living room
• Second bedroom had good size, with 2 closets
• Vanities in bathrooms were nice
• Jetted tub in the master bedroom bath
• Master bedroom walk in closet
• Fourth bedroom was small but nice
• Big hall storage for linens upstairs

And here are the bad aspects of this house:

• The brick front did not look good close up
• There were some trees in the front I would want to remove
• Lots of hard wood floors. I prefer carpet.
• You had to walk outside to get to the garage
• The back yard was muddy. Bad rain and water flow.
• Only 1 car garage
• Built in microwave
• Sump pumps were in middle of finished room in basement
• Two utility rooms in basement. Not all finished.
• Finished room in basement was small.
• There were weird cutouts in wall of finished basement room
