They tried to buy our home as a rental. Lucky we had others to choose from.
A family with a baby got our home! They both made good money in their jobs. We also made out like bandits and got a large property with a pool! In Florida our house was very reasonable. Just half a mil! We sold ours for a million in Kirkland.
The house we have now if it was in Kirkland would cost way over 5 million! Location has a lot to do with it! Owning more land too!
My first home coming to Washington back in 78 was $59,000.00 with 8% mortgage. I was 22 years old. It was fun having people come to the door asking for my mother. 😂 I did without and had an old car. Mattress was on the floor for many years and had a card table for a dinning table. Hell! I had a house! I was a climber, so didn't care about furniture and I was working most of the time anyway.
