Try to keep in touch

We have spent the last several months buying a house. When I say buy, I mean make an offer, wait for offer to be accepted and close. Simple right? Wrong. So very wrong. To save you from the "nitty gritty", I choose to tell you the details as briefly as possible in the antiquated but useful telegram format. Here goes: Live Avenues impossible. Look for houses anyway. Get frustrated. Find 4 plex in aves owned by ailing 85 year old man. Nicest man in the world. House not on market. Make offer anyway. Wait for 3 months not knowing while covertly trying to evict 21 year old drug addict. Evict addict. Buy 4plex! Learn how to remodel 1940's house. Drink Coke.

The end.
