Looking for land!

September 29th, 2010 at 08:18 pm

We went out looking for land last weekend. Even tho nothing is selling here, my dh can not stand to be out of work and wants to build a spec house. There are a few vacation cabins, under $150,000 that are selling here.
So, we went looking for cabin lots. We went to a subdivision where we almost bought a lot about 2-3 years ago. It had some nice view lots and was resticted to cabins.
There are a few houses out in the subdivision but two of them are vacant and in foreclosure. No one is mowing the grass, so the subdivison looks terrible.

We do own a beautiful 1.5 acre that we could build on.
It has 180 degrees mountain views from the front and side of the house. The view is of Brasstown Bald, which is the highest mountain in the state of Georgia!
Of course, we paid a fortune for the lot, thinking we might want to live there someday.
However, with my husband's love for cars (and his need for many garages) , we need to live on more level land like we do now. (2 flat acres on a creek)

So, we could build a small spec house on this property, but it would have to price more than $150,000 cause we paid $80,000 for the land!!

What to do?????????

Well, I grocery shopped yesterday and saved $4 using my Ingles card, and I have 3 one's left over for a total of $7 to add to my $20 challenge.

Prev. total $13,822.00
today 7.00
new total $13,829.00
