Is fucking maddening. It's nothing but a goddamn string of useless fucking people with their hands out wanting money.
Seller's agent: Try to get you to underprice your home for a quick, easy sale. Not good at keeping you informed.
Buyers agent: Sit around and wait for a buyer to find something they like online, and go unlock a fucking door for them.
Home inspectors: Biggest fucking sham ever. OH WE PROTECT THE BUYER. Yeah just the dumbass lazy buyers who aren't capable of walking around a house and spotting obvious defects on their own. Mostly a way to extort more money from the seller after a deal has been made.
And the closing costs...title fee escrow fee tax stamp blah blah blah what in the earthly fuck is all this shit?
$205,000 house....$25,000 just GONE off the top.
Hopefully I'll die in the next house we buy so I don't ever have to go through this shit again. [Reply]

Prepare to be disappointed again...
Disappointed? I'm thrilled. The mystery is solved. That's exactly what that is.
The mystery now is why they ran a wood stove flue directly up the middle of their living room. It's a good thing that you took a pass. Their design aesthetic is off. [Reply]

I realize Wichita isn’t the greatest place in the U.S.A. to live, but I grew up in a small town just outside of Wichita and my entire family still lives within 15 minutes of me. It’s home and the wife and I travel enough to not feel like your typical Midwesterner. [Reply]

That's pretty much why I stayed in Omaha this long. It's not real easy to leave everything you've ever known behind. [Reply]

I guess it's me that's disappointed. I was really hoping it was the controls to turn the steps into a flat floor. I'm going to have to build that into our next home. [Reply]

That really should be a standard feature of all homes with stairs.
I pushed to make the door to our bedroom a secret passage door. It's perfectly positioned where you would never know there was a room there if you made the door a secret door. But my wife was reluctant and the architect screwed me over by siding with her. [Reply]

On a related note, the house with the urinal also had a false mirror in the hallway outside the master bedroom where you could hide your guns. The Mrs was not impressed by that though. Women... [Reply]
