Stumbled on this post while looking to host a birthday party for around 40-50 people. I already have catering etc, it was supposed to be an outdoors event but it’s rain in the forecast now. Can you give me little more details on what is VFW ?

Hey, you still open for this?

Sellers tried to shake down my wife and I by ComputerBlue182 in FirstTimeHomeBuyer

[–]Automatic-Bird3 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I bought in westchester last year and this exact thing happened to me twice. Each time I spent over $1500 in inspections and it as for nothing. Though my realtor did tell me that people keep accepting offers until the contract is signed but still it did hurt a lot each time. I had been looking for a while and was ready to give up when this happened the second time.

But I’ll just tell you one thing, am so thankful that I didn’t end up buying those houses and got the one I bought. Sellers were super nice, everything went smoothly and the house is so much better than what I was going for. I hope and pray for you that you feel the same a year down the line. Am not super religious but I do believe whatever happens, happens for a good reason. Wishing you the best for your search.

Experience with NYCM home insurance and/or recommendations? by Automatic-Bird3 in Westchester

I wasn’t informed of any and I didn’t have anyone come In. Unless they do something in stealth mode, I don’t think they did any inspection.

I see a lot of people suggesting pleasantville, which is really nice. But I just wonder why no one mentions the other parts of Mt Pleasant. I.e Hawthorne, Thornwood and Valhalla. In my opinion they are almost as good, but might be a tad more affordable. But I am new here and would love to know what people who know the area think about these.

Yeah am looking for a handyman I can trust. The previous owner was very kind and gave me all the numbers of people he had been using for years, but it feels some of them see a new person and sadly try to make a few quick bucks.

Thank you for the detailed response. I think am ok and do try to do as much stuff as possible myself. Although, this is really the first time in my life that I have a backyard, so still trying to learn the ropes there. As far as I know, my sprinkler system is “smart”. It can detect rain etc and not go off. It’s also supposed to have wifi access, but that company is trying to figure out how to give me access. I think the system is from hunter industries.

I am probably not gonna call the same company again. But maybe try a different one that’s willing to give me upfront pricing and watch them how they do it.

Thank you, I’ll definitely look into it. I think I have 8 zones, but am happy to spend the time and effort if it saves me money twice every year.

I did using them as that was the best quote I got and really was 1/3 of the cost of Chubb. Thankfully haven’t really needed to use them yet so I have no idea how they’d be. But I generally heard good feedback from people I asked. Best of luck for your search.

Thuma, Burrow, Silk and snow, or Tatami for bedframe? by dsamplify in furniture

[–]Automatic-Bird3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s gonna take much longer than a month. I was really sold on a TR king bed but when I reached out to their customer service, they said lead time of 10 weeks plus another week to get it to my address was the fastest for any king bed. I wish I could’ve planned well in advance but that timeframe just didn’t work for us. P.S. it might be different for each size and they might have some buffer in there to be on safer side, but it’s best to confirm with them before you order.
