Haha hopefully that wasn't too hard of a way to learn...
But yeah our realtor is kinda my dads buddy so I have his second opinion plus the third opinion of his best friend who happens to live across the street from the house and is a Cleveland firefighter but does contracting on the side, is meeting us there tonight too!
So I hope we can't miss anything haha
And my sister/I are just about pre-approved! Still waiting on a few details but her bank lady said for a house this cheap its not a problem, only if we were looking over $90-100k
And I did not see any others in Westpark under $60k at least in that area..

It went great, only one little issue with slight water damage under the porch, and they added a beam under under one side, that we need someone to take a look at.
Also may be trading my Liberty for a slightly modded 01 Mustang Conv. but its just a V6, with intake, headers true dual exhaust, rims, audio and a few other little things plus some cash to put towards the new house!

yikes! Dont do that trade.
And if the water damage is only to the wood under porch thats not bad at all. If anything just ask to come down on the price a tad.

I am thinking about the trade if it looks as good in person as it does in pics except for the 20" rims would need to go for some decent 18s.
I just need the cash right now, and to also get a good looking "fuel efficient" car would be a plus compared to having two gas hogging Jeeps and no cash...

I'm not to happy about it being a V6 or conv. as I would prefer a V8 coupe
But for what it is, I think its a fair offer considering my Liberty needs some body work, and is not perfect!
And to be honest It may go up for sale/trade first thing in the spring for a 97-01 Firebird or Camaro with a V8

I think you'd be better off selling or even putting up a for trade ad, But on average they both get about 18ish city/highway. You might lose some mpg with bigger tires on the liberty tho.
Oh! I got the girl interested in a ZJ instead of a escape! WOOT WOOT! probably 95-98 MAYBE at 99 if price is right.

I think this mustang should be worth $5-6k, since is it leather, and chicks love a silver with black stripe mustang conv with goodies and seems to be in great condition, plus $3,000 cash hes adding on top of it.
Yeah I think I should be able to gain a good 5 MPG.
Very nice!! I loaded ZJ is cheap and easy to find, and very nice, roomy and very capable! A WJ is just as nice, but harder to find cheap, I almost bought a loaded 03 before I got the KJ, but the guy was very shady so I had to walk away..

If he is giving you 3k cash take it, then sell the stang for another 5+k and buy something else hahaha
We are looking to sell the Eclipse to pay for the ZJ/WJ So most likely be a ZJ so we dont have to add money. We owe like 2700 on the eclipse and its worth about 4-5k. Im ok with throwing in 1k but Id rather not. lol We want out of payments and to upgrade to a suv so I think thats the best way.

And nothing wrong with a ZJ! My dad bought my mom a 98 with 10k on it in 99. That thing was awesome, and went through 3 accidents and was still strong as can be! One totally a cobra that ran a stop sign, and we drove the ZJ home! After getting it fixed for the third time It was suppose to be my first car, but that didn't happen...

Well it is official, the sold sign went up this morning!
Now we just need to be out by December 5th...
It definitely was the quickest sale of any house I've seen recently. The house was only on the market for 3 days when the first saw it, and then 2 more before the offer went in!
