Got the house

The owners agreed to the 60K asking price. Should we have gone lower? Well it seemed a reasobly cheap price for what we are getting. We will see as the process moves along. Now we have to get going on the septic and figure out what we are going to live in. After cleaning out the bathroom, I don't think the current structure is habitable short term.

More Negotiations.

After finding out the septic is going to cost more like 20K and that the road was priced at 15K
we sent a second offer to the owner of 60K. Although it was listed for 96K, I think they had an unreasobable view of the value of the property. We will see what they say. All our quotes are in, I'm also investigating the best option for replacing the cabin. I'm hoping for a modular or pre-manufactured home. Most of the pre-manufactured homes, I've seen have outrageous shipping though, as they are made back east. Not sure I would want a modular home either.
