$2,000

Well, the call came today that the seller agreed to give me $2,000 at the closing table for the major faults found in the inspection.
I have to keep reminding myself that hey, this is a good house on a lot of land and I'm now getting it for $33,000. I can't be picky! I'm thankful that I'm getting the $2,000 I asked for. It will definitely go to the termites.

My plans, as of now, are:

• Clean the house, inside and out. Tidy up the yard.
  
• Treat the termites.
• Put up the fence.
• Pull up carpet, put down leveling cement in the front room and bedroom.
• Tear out old paneling, put up drywall, leave plaster walls, PAINT!
  
• Put down new floors.
• Fix up kitchen--paint cabinets, fix drawers, new sink.
  
• Fix up the bathroom--paint, new floor.
