My son got the house in Robert Lee inspected, and it needed everything. The owner wouldn’t accept an offer for less, so they bought a house here in town. Nice house here, but bummer about the other house.

The last house that we were interested in had numerous Foundation and roofing issues. The inspector we hired was really good, so many of them kowtow to the Realtors so they can get rehired. The Realtors want the sale to go through no matter what oh, so they minimize the problems they find. That’s kind of a bad system where they get the jobs through the Realtors who have an interest in not finding problems. The people buying the house and paying for the inspection aren’t really represented.

I spent the morning packing a little and then writing up a file to print out and put on our calendar when we sell. It has the six or seven hiking trails nearby plus the orchard trees and the blueberry bushes and various other plants that grow around the property. As I was typing it up, dictating actually, I realized we could sort of offer this as a horse property. It has no fencing and no shelters, but it does have large swaths of pasture as well as two or three trails nearby that allow horses. I just hope the next deaf owners enjoy this property as much as we did. As much as we used to.
