Well i closed on the 19th and moved in the 20th. I'm very happy with my new investment. I figured ive been throwing away my money for years on rent, might as well spend it on somthing thats mine. Its a slip foyer 4 bed 3 bath on 3 acres right on the Chessapeake bay!! Love it! Its 10 years old, new kitchen, bathrooms, hard wood floors, newly finished basment with extra bed room and office, foyer. Got a hell of a deal on it. House sold for 355k in 07, got forclosed, guy remodeled it and i bought it for 269k with no closing costs.

Very cool... looking forward to more pics!

Congrats and nice job taking advantage of the buyer's market out there!!

 

Okay. I'm still not 100% clear, but I'll go with it for now.

 

Congrats!

 

Basically, you enter the house and you have two choices, go downstairs or go upstairs.

I almost bought one, but I was outbid. It had the master bedroom, kitchen, and livingroom upstairs, and 2 bedrooms, laundry room, and a family room downstairs. The livingroom overlooked the entry. It was actually pretty cool.

 

Congrats!

 

nice pick up..

 

congratz man, nice house

 

Congratulations and welcome to loan ownership

Nice house btw

 

nice deal
is most of your 3 acres treed then?
looks like it would nice and peacefull

 

That's a great deal!

 

Nice looking place! Congrats.

 

Nice place! You're gonna need a tractor and a garage to keep it in!

 

build a garage and you are set.

oh and of course a nice riding lawn mower like a john deere

 

Yes. Most of the land is wooded. So alittle more about the house. ( im gonna take some better pics today). But like i said it has 4 bed rooms, one a master with dual sinks, jacuzzi, stand up shower, french doors, 2 other bed rooms up stairs, new country kitchen, with all new stainless steel appl. Big back deck built up the the second level. Down stairs has 1 full bath, bed room, office and foyer for the back entrance, with tiled floor and ready room, theres also a storage room and laundry room in the basmet.

Oh i also got a VA loan, so no money down, and i got a really realy good interest rate! 4.5% fixed for 30 years, but i'm on a 13 month payment plan so should knock 10 years off that. The land needs some work, i need to remove a bunch of dead shrubs, etc but nothing i can't handle with a little elbow greese. I'm about .25 miles from the beach. I want a garage like no other, but could'nt pass up this house, so for now' i'm going to build a shed.

 

Nice house bro!

1.) Get a garage. You'll need them up in Maryland, trust me. I used to live up there.
2.) Pool table.

Post some interior pics!

 

Isn't the technical term Raised Ranch !!!

Fireguy0826,
Congratulations on the home ownership.

 

They call them split foyers around here..

 

I've only heard of raised ranch or bilevel.

Oh, and I would definitely build a garage.

 

Thats a great deal for 3 acres wooded! Wish we got those deals out here in the Chicago area! Congrats!

 

The technical term is "split-level" or "tri-level" home
