It really is a lot of place for $80K. Obviously we'd need to get an inspector in there, but I looked all around for water damage, or anything else that looked weird. Other than some sketchy repair of the carpeting, it looked really solid. Especially for a summer getaway place

https://www.zillow.com/homedetails/15810-State-Route-173-APT-1H-Harvard-IL-60033/2098214895_zpid/ Went to look at this place for my parents last night. It's in the middle of FUCKING NOWHERE. But it's kind of a neat place. Has some quirks and some odd choices, but throw a few grand in paint and...

Agreed, that is awesome! If I could work from home, and the GF could practice in Wisconsin...I'd be all over it

I'm scared to see the inside of that...

I would buy the shit out of that...

Thank you sir...those association dues on Delevan, wowza, but these are definitely the type of stuff they are looking for!

Yeah, they're going to be up in July for wombat 's wedding, so they are going to take the time, and look through some of the areas, and see if it's what they want

Gotcha...I think they are semi OK with that, but it depends on how far away their "essentials" are. Thanks for the 411

Bad area? Genuinely curious, as I'm pretty unfamiliar with the area out there

Harvard about the limit for distance...but basically an hour/hour and a half from the Palatine/Wheeling area

Something sort of like this https://www.zillow.com/homedetails/15810-State-Route-173-APT-1H-Harvard-IL-60033/2098214895_zpid/?utm_source=email&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=emo-sendtofriend-hdp&rtoken=bccac4dd-e425-45b4-9829-26ddd2a6bdbf~X1-ZUwp0de1gewvex_5kvb8

Oops, sorry...I'd say sub $100K...doesn't have to look great; good bones.

OK Redfin and McHenry/Lake County searchers...parents are looking for a second place condo or townhouse around the Fox River, Woodstock, Island Lake areas or up towards Fox Lake. Looking for someplace with an association to take care of the BS (plowing, grass, etc) while they are away...

Damn, I really like that house...but yeah, going to be a bitch on taxes and a bitch to heat and cool.

Oh hell yes...her firm technically does real estate stuff too, and in our area...we'll see if we can't get it lowered a little more ;)

Well, seems like I have enough evidence to get the valuation reduced...plus lawyer girlfriend will submit it for me...makes it easier

Yeah me tax increase this year was fairly minimal...$12 a month or something...nothing to get too up in arms about. I'd rather spend my efforts elsewhere if it's not going to make much of a difference

Considering it appraised for $10k+ less, less than 6 months ago...

Got the Cook County appraisal notice yesterday, house appraised for $20K more than it did last year....I don't know how I should feel about that
