    You gotta buy the 4x4, I gotta get the house.

    The place I'm looking at needs a little bit of work, so there a lot of inspections that need to be done.

    Bummer...where were you looking at?

    On another note...truck is getting worked on tomorrow.
    New lower ball joints and throwing on the LR UCAs. All in all everything but the spindles themselves and brake lines have been replaced lol

    Can't wait to test out flex with the new goodies though...I should get a little bit more wheel travel.

    That place was a condo called Grand View at Crestwood...it's in royal palm beach. 3/2 with 1 car attached garage. Not the exact one in the video below, but close. Same layout and look...was sold for $102,400...my offer was $99,900...asking price...

    There's another bank owned one, it it has mold and I'm not going to redo the entire condo to get rid of mold...and they don't want inspections...but they are asking the same price.

    yeah...i dont really want a condo either, but the price was pretty good for what it was...

    Maybe its just a sign to get a Single Family Detached in the acreage with some land...

    About a yr ago my cousin bought a 4bed 3.5 bath out by persimmon ST in the acreage with a huge lot. I think he got it for 125000 and put maybe 25000 into it. My other buddy is signing paperwork for his house out there today. Haven't seen it yet but he got a good deal.

    I don't know how to do that quote thing but 2010.TRD wrote this:

    This is SO TRUE! My father-in-law was one of the elctrcians working on the Trump Towers Condos that are on North Miami Beach & he said that before construction was even finished more than half of them were sold to people who reside OUTSIDE of this country.

    That's why I always tell my wife that I don't see us growing old in Miami. It's getting out of hand.

    Dan, Good luck buddy.
