real estate junkies

I think I am addicted to looking at apartments/homes/real estate. I look for those parts of the newspaper first, I can spend for ever looking at apartments online and I will stop by open houses in my neighborhood, just to look at what is open. So, in honor of my addiction, if you have pics of your crib, pls post.

Here's mine ...

Boy and I are putting in an offer on a house tomorrow.

It's a bank repo, and we know that the mortgage on it was way less than what the asking price is. So we're going to offer a little over what the bank is in for (to cover court costs, attorney's fees, real estate commission, etc) and hope for the best.

Keep your fingers crossed!

Hehehehe....me too. I like looking at houses.

When my sister, our friend and I first moved in to our house in Long Beach, we noticed that the *very nice* house next door was for sale. One weekend they had an open house and we just walked right in. We told the agent, "Uh...we're just the nosey next door neighbors."

At any rate, you asked for it! Here is a link to view piccies of my flat:

I have such a blast looking at apartments and condos, especially in places where I hope to live. I just got a new apartment in the city, and as soon as I get to see it, I'll post pictures.

This is the tour of the home my parents moved into in Dec.l ( so i guess it's not mine but i'm here 4 months out of the year and i have a room). The furniture and placement is different but they haven't made too many changes yet( except for painting)

I love that show!

I am so relieved that I am not the only person with a fascination for real estate. I look at apartments and houses in random cities all the time, just to compare price of living. I also look around at various sites (like realtor.com) for houses that are for sale around my area, even though I am not in the market.

My bizarre attraction to real estate actually led to me taking the course to be a liscensed salesperson. Unfortunately, I let my liscence lapse in March
