I actually want to move to Dillworth as soon as I can.  I live in Indian Trail but, I didn't work uptown at that point when I bought it.  The drive is killing me.  I can save like an hour a day of my life if I lived closer to uptown.  Wife and me have no kids so seems like a good idea.

Highly recommended.  Getting out of work at 5:00 and getting home at 5:05 for the win.

pff, my value has gone up about 75% in 4 years.  The benefit of buying in the hood on the fringes of nice areas I suppose.

Yep, there is heavy in flow of younger population in Charlotte who wants to live near uptown...  That's why everything is going through the roof.  Go millennials!

And my contract offer for a house in Ballantyne was accepted.  

It just mind blowing how houses in Ballantyne just fly off the market.  If a house goes on sale on Friday, it literally sales within 24 hours.

We seen a house that gone on sale on Friday and by Saturday 3pm it had 5 offers.  We were not the highest bidder (probably lowest) but they picked us because we gave them the option to rent it back from us if they can't find a new home within 6 months.

Its like that where I am, too.  My neighborhood in matthews, in the winter mind you, houses are coming on and off the market 2-3 days max.  Charlotte real estate is HOT right now.

Man I really want to move uptown but I have some repairs to get done and whatnot and I keep putting it off.  I guess I need to find a good handyman or something.

You don't have to fix them in a fast paced RE market.

Put the house on the market if you want to sell it.  Then you can negotiate the repairs if you get a contract.  If you don't get an offer soon, you can do it yourself.

Some people don't care about the small repairs if the price and location are right.

I may.  I kind of want to replace the carpet, it's the junk they first put down when a home is built and it could really help the look inside and shouldn't cost too much.

Home Depot, 0% on a credit card for the first 18 months.  Sell the house, and pay off the card with the income.

My husband and I were looking at houses this time last year and it was the same way...Prices are up from this time last year as well..Thank God we bought when we did or we wouldn't be able to afford where we're at now

      One man’s trash…

      By strato · Posted

      I thought he was from watching him play and also doing his first HC job. I thought he was the real deal  Apparently what happened is Kraft committed to Mayo and I don’t remember the timeline exactly - but Vrabel was unemployed at the same time Belichick was unemployed. They both were fired (or out) after the 2023 season.  Kraft hired Mayo. Who was kind of an obvious disaster. He probably already had the deal in place but I will give Kraft credit for not sleeping. With Vrabel out there for 2025 he made the move he needed to make and if it hurt Mayo’s feelings then oh well.  I guess you can tell I am not fond of Kraft but that was a really savvy move. At his age, pretty good. Still has it.

      Bills predictions

      By X-Clown · Posted

      It’s going to feel like a home game for the bills. There are so many of their fans that live down here now, and many of them have never seen Allen play in person since their last visit was 8 years ago. It didn’t matter for the cowboys game, but it might here. I think we likely lose a close one. Probably a questionable flag or two that doesn’t go our way. X factor for Buffalo will be Kincaid and Knox. If we do win it’s because we get ahead and play keep away from Allen. FYI- I have many friends who are Bills fans that are fed up with Beane who we all revere and think is the one that got away. They feel like he was great to land Josh but has done a terrible job of building around him (especially at WR) and rely on him to become super man to win- sounds kind of familiar, like the last time we had a franchise QB.
