Hick was driving to his SUS2.5 (Storage Unit Store 2.5) on Monday when he got a phone call. It was some guy he didn't know. He said that he heard Hick buys houses to flip. Turns out Some Guy knows the guy we bought the Double Hovel flip house(s) from. Who is the dad of Genius's elementary school teacher.
"I told him I'd come by and take a look at it later this afternoon."
Well. We haven't sold Bargain House yet. The Pony's money is tied up in that. So we'd have to front the money until The Pony gets his cut of the Bargain House sale, then recoup it. Not a problem, but something I'd rather not deal with. We could still come up with the asking price without getting a loan.
With nothing happening on the foreclosure house that's been stringing us along since last fall, Hick is getting antsy for another project. Hick has told Loan Officer that he will not pay one penny more for that foreclosure house than he had first offered and been approved for. We have no idea what will happen when it goes up for bids on the courthouse steps.
"Maybe this is what's supposed to happen. So if we would get this new house, we'd forget about that foreclosure?"
"Not necessarily..."
Well. I'm sure I'll have something to say about THAT. I'm pretty sure The Pony will share my concerns. More details about the "Lap House" tomorrow...
