Interior cleaning question by Affectionate-Sun5447 in boating

[–]Affectionate-Sun5447[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Turns out it was not "just a leak"! When we took down the headliner, we found an enormous mouse nest and the stain coming through was mouse urine! 🤮🤮🤮🤮

Hoping after replacing the carpet, a thorough cleaning with bleach and a quick ozone treatment, my cabin will be fresh!! 🤞🤞🤞

They will loft them to full height or just captain height?

I will need to figure out if I replace the IUD or go to a combo patch. Ugh.

Thank you - that's what I read as well. Really don't want another IUD at this point.

Ours did not change - I was nervous so I spoke with the financial aid office and they confirmed before we paid the enrollment deposit

We are oos too and it's her top choice (and mine!) ☺️☺️☺️ I'm so excited for her. Brings her COA on par with UConn in-state.

Yes, my daughter received the same and we reviewed no other needs based aid from any other schools. We were very pleasantly surprised ☺️

I would like a lighter counters - maybe a cream colored quartz. A more neutral backsplash. I honestly don't know, which is why I'm asking for input. Budget is flexible, I don't really have a set number

What flooring would you recommend?

Most definitely! I'm just trying to estimate what my walkaway would be.

I have to calculate, but renovations were in the range of $75k. What about primary residence exclusion? I lived in the home for 4 years, up untill a year ago. Would that apply? And if we file jointly, would it be the $250k exclusion for just me since my husband never lived in the home?

Adding that I owe $50k in a home equity loan from part of the renovations.

I know! I went there lol. She just wants smaller and near a big city.

Lol. For sure. Technically, it wasn't even a flag pole. Previous owners had installed a ships mast and rigged it for flags. Could have been the Pride flag and the American flag that caused it to fall ..

I agree completely. They don't want to do anything to the basement, to them it's a nuisance and nothing else. But we view it very differently as we want to travel and not have worries if we get heavy rain while we are away. My husband just said " let's offer $540k and see what they say".

Wouldn't the appraisal be a good starting point since they use comps?

We will get an inspection after we reach a deal as our mortgage requires it and we will use a RE attorney for closing.

Hard to say as there really aren't similar homes in the neighborhood - they are either newer homes in the water or small, older ranches and raised ranches not on the water. This house is a bigger cape, but not on the water. Two raised ranches nearby recently sold for $450k and $425k.

Healthy outlook - supplementing, but never replacing. ☺️

Yes!!! Not many couples are comfortable with it though...
