PennSilverTaco's "Perfect 5-Lug Regular Cab" Build, Aspergers, and General BS MegaThread!

Wow, almost $300 a sq/ft.
And I though $200 a sq/ft was high.

Label me poor and live in a shack. Property taxes be damned......

 

X2 Holy crap ! That's nuts !

 

Thats a no for me dawg

 

The gourmet kitchen with granite countertops (as well as the wall oven, built-in microwave, and gas cooktop) are all standard...

 

HUGE powder room. Actually now that I think about it, it's a 55+ community, so it s probably supposed to be wheelchair accessible...

 

I was about sick when I paid $350K for the house my mom is living in. (1,450 sq/ft)
A tree (technically 2) fell through her house.
That happened in July 2022, and she is still fighting insurance over it.

Rent here in Tennessee is $1,200+ a month.
So I said, find a house you like and I'll buy it.

Not sure what I'll do with it, when hers is finally settled and fixed.
Rent it out myself or sell it?
I don't know?

I'm currently living in one of the houses my grandparents own while "doing my best" to take care of them.
So it's not like I need to buy myself a house right now.

I just inherited some property on the lake. Still in the process of cleaning it off.
Me and my dad cleared it off in 2000 when I was in high school.
My grandfather used to have some local guys bushhog it a couple times a year.
But the last few years, he didn't have it done. So I bought a Dr. Mower and and took a chain saw and started clearing it off (again)
I couldn't stand to see it grow up after all that work.

Next thing I know, they deeded it over to me.
I was the only one in the family that showed any interest in it.
And they (grandparents) did want to deal with it any more.

I tell you what, Septic is expensive.....
I'm in the process of that now. Being on the lake it needs a "special" system.
More regulations and perc stipulations when you are on the water.

 

Surprised they didn't go with a pedestal sink, or enclosed unit to hide the plumbing.
I also hope that's "plastic chrome". Because those drains rust out in about 20-25 years.
I know, I replaced many of them.

 

Apartment

 

The lady across the street from my mom, pays $1,475 a month.
Same basic layout as my mom's place.

The house next to her is $1,600 a month.

 

That would be low for monthly rent on an apartment here. My girlfriend pays $600 to rent a room in an old lady's house. The house has central A/C in addition to Amanda's window unit, and she has to share a bathroom, but doesn't pay any utilities and gets full access to both the kitchen and the laundry room!

 

One of the upstairs bedroom...

 

The other upstairs bedroom...

 

1st floor master bedroom...

 

Only one walk-in closet for the master bedroom, in a $700K+ house...

 

The master bathroom shower was really nice...
