'ed up with your modifying.I went looking at home opens today. We're going to be selling up in the not too distant future and we're trying to get an idea of what your money buys in various suburbs we think we might deem suitable for us.
We went to one house today that on paper sounded great. It was an absolute shithole. Seriously not only was the place not tidied up for the home opens, but it didnt look like it had been cleaned ever! The owner was a chain smoker so your nose and lungs were violated the second you stepped in the door. The floors hadnt been vacuumed, the walls were grimey, the ceiling had that orange smoke tar stain, there were colonies of spiders living everywhere, the bathroom was just offensively dirty, I couldnt bring myself to look at the toilet. You'd have to gut the place before you could move in. you certainly wouldnt even entertain the idea of using the kitchen. It was feral. We felt dirty walking out of there. Worst of all, after we got home and did some pottering around, i had to go out to my car. When I sat in it, it smelt of that house! Blaaaaaarggghhhhhh!
How the **** do people live like this?
Seriously you'd have to drop $40k off the asking price simply so you could spend the money to get it to a liveable standard.
