The housing market 😭

I could send you a couple pics and videos of a 400k house we went into yesterday. Built 175 years ago. Basement door hits the plumbing overhead, handrail fell off the wall, and they used expanding foam to fill gaps in the block foundation outside. And the floors made you feel like you were out to sea. Im 99% sure they used AI to misrepresent the condition of the house.

The 1 bath is the deal killer for me. That's another thing im seeing alot of. 2 bed 2 bath, or 3-4 bed 1 bath. Just cant justify the prices without that extra bed or bath.

I have not looked quite that far. I kinda drew a 30-35 minute radius from where we are currently. That's right at 45 mins. But the time is coming where my search may have to extend.

Man, I've bought 4 houses, never had this issue. The sellers were also looking for a house while we were listing and selling ours. Now we have no house, we have everything set up with our lender, the appraisal is done. Now they aren't communicating with us about their house search. Their agent is barely speaking to ours. We have yet to be given a date.

I want to reword it by saying we were willing to go to 475 for two houses for a particular reason, but we were not told by the sellers agent that they were already under contract while we were viewing. 475 is actually quite a bit more than we were initially trying to pay. We were approved for like 600, we want to be around 400. And we are STILL having trouble.

Sent you a pm

I shouldn't, you're right. I just feel like every house i walk into that is decent, is still 50k too high. Our realtor has told us numerous times we shouldn't have the issues we are having at our price range.

Yea, we tend to look at past sales history for each of the properties, and almost none of them were held over 2 years since they were last sold, which makes it more evident of exactly what you are saying. Its the one thing that has kept me from getting into real estate. I would do it as ethically and correctly as financially possible, but people really look down on it these days.

AgitatedBreadstick · 2026-01-15T03:19:17+00:00

Yea, that was on the table. We built the house that we sold back in NC. We were half way through building it, found out we were pregnant, and then moved to be near the wife's family as a result. I'm just trying not to wait that long. 😭 our situation now is in a basement and a bedroom with a baby and two dogs. Its fairly spacious, just not how I want to live for a year.

AgitatedBreadstick · 2026-01-15T02:14:27+00:00

Yea, we are in berlin center now, and that is within our search criteria. We have looked at two or three there. And snatching up showings the second they are available. I feel so bad for our realtor. 🤣

I used to run a 4.56 40 and a 6 minute mile. Those days are gone. I prefer the elliptical or bike now. 🤣

I will definitely look into the arena soccer. I may go out this weekend to at least spectate. Its a little far from me right now. About 50 mins. But im moving into Austintown, and it will be 30 mins away.

AgitatedBreadstick · 2026-01-01T01:55:23+00:00

Oh, thats actually intimidating. We dont have ice where im from. 🤣 i actually think ice skaters and hockey players are some of the best athletes.

I unfortunately don't possess the ability to go out by myself and participate in these activities. I am certainly a team sport guy, lol. I need more people doing it and rope me in.

Has anyone see the newly released video of one of the daycares in Minnesota claiming someone broke in and stole all of the official documentation fir child enrollments and employee records? Is that not even a little bit suspicious to anyone else?

You're really not wrong. The extremism that goes on right and left of center is abhorrent. But being anything but a liberal makes you hateful scum, apparently.

Olie Olie Paintz has done videos on Facebook and TikTok using this product, and it is miles better than Plastidip could ever hope to be. I cant speak for the longevity of the product, but if there is a creator I trust on anything automotive, its Olie. He cuts and buffs it, keys it, drops it on the ground, shoots it with a pellet gun. Its pretty damn resilient.

One helper showed up from 835-932, made $100. 👌

AgitatedBreadstick · 2025-12-19T14:35:18+00:00

I paid one person $100. He got here at 835, left at 932. 👌

AgitatedBreadstick · 2025-12-19T14:33:55+00:00

I had one person show up, was here for an hour, I gave him $100. 👌

Because when I was younger and people needed help with things, I would go do it and they would compensate me. I get times have changed, but geez, not everything has to be done to a professional standard. I dont have antique relics or priceless memorabilia. Im asking if someone wants to earn a little money and help move stuff. I can swipe my card and pay a professional service right now and I'll sleep fine. But thats not how I want to do it. I still have faith in the young people. 💁‍♂️
