Haha, right?! When she told me the house was originally for sale at $10k flat, but she was able to get the owner to go down to the $7.5k (roof needed replaced, which we did for her last year), I about lost my damn mind. What a damn steal! All cash offer, just bought it out, was completely sold in about a week to her. Very fast.
I told her regardless to jump at the damn offer. She spends about 7 months here and 5 months down south taking care of my GMIL. So, she really needed a "base" camp for herself and is really happy with it. She is already planning on never selling the place, and I don't blame her. This is the first house she has owned in her 62 years. It's such a cute historic house, too.
I can't talk it up enough, really. She really loves the place. It's absolutely perfect for her.
