No not from here, you could only be so lucky. :p
With my life. Making an offer on 5 acres this evening for my new house. I have done my homework and have a fair offer in mind. Might be to far apart with the seller, but we'll see.
Wish me luck and wish him good sense to see that my offer is fair.
Cool! Good luck on your dream coming together.
:)

Fingers crossed here, gl man!
Good luck. Sounds like you are about to deliver a serious lowball.

Our current house we made an offer on the land, the lady who owned it countered by coming down ONE DOLLAR. We walked away, a couple months later we owned the property for what we thought it was worth.
Cool is the rule.
Yeah, it all depends on the market. If you play that game here, oops, you just lost the property. :cussing:
It's anywhere, man. If you become emotionally invested before you buy, you will overpay. Stay detached and clinical and you will do fine.
Detached and clinical, my new creed.
THat's good to hear, H. Good luck on getting the property.
When my sister was selling her piece of land I had a low ball offer. She told The realtor she wasn't even going to respond. That got their attention and the two parties eventually mad a deal, but for much higher than the original offer.
Good luck H-man.
I forgot how cheap property is in Maine.
H, I'll be in Maine visiting family for a week starting next Tuesday. We should hook up for some beers or something.
Sounds kind of like an abortion, maybe we should rephrase it.Quote:

iskibc, pm sent. I still like beer.
Grange - why did you lowball your sister?
Oh wait, that doesn't sound right...
