*places fingers against temples* The bed butts up against the wall, there is a bookshelf there, light colored, taller than the bed with several cubbies Kidding, I just checked the reflection in the window. There really is no other side of the room in this case, the wood in the picture of the...

Welcome to the forum. Honestly, we cannot give many of the things you ask for. Whether or not we think it would be a good investment, and how much you should put into it, we can't really determine. If you want to find out the best options for this house, look around the area where it is. See...

If the ants are nesting outside the house you have a better chance of stopping them. I suggest doing lots of combo's to try and finish things off. First off put a barrier up around your house (where you see them coming in). Things like cayenne pepper, boiled orange peel juice (basically any...

Easiest I can think would be a metal fireplace screen to stick in front of the insert so you can only see it if you are looking straight down. They can be quite decorative as well.

I wouldnt suggest letting them do home "improvements". Because what an improvement is, is subject to the individual. Not to mention it sounds like this is just a person who fancies themselves handy instead of an actual handy man licensed, bonded etc. If this was an actual contractor with a good...

Do you happen to know what kind of mold it is? I dont suppose you have had it tested. Does it look like black mold or just mold mold? Do you have very young children? Is it dry or moist mold? If you have a baby and it seems dangerous you should get out of there as certain molds can cause...

Thank you for your response it has definitely helped me a lot. I am not sure the roof is a tar and gravel flat roof. I didnt get to see the roof myself as the inspector had already done that when I arrived. Its a white roof with a pool of water where the issue is stemming from. The roof...

I am trying to buy a house with a flat roof. I initially saw the house a year ago and there was only slight problems at the time. It was clear the water was not draining properly but since it was not dealt with (vacant) it has since gotten much worse. It is now dripping from the ceiling but not...

Some of the best leather cleaners/conditioners out there are likely available of your local feed store (for live stock). Yellow book will be able to find something for you. There is a variety of things out there and your feed store will likely have them all for cheaper than you can find...

It was kind of the opposite. I went and saw the house and made the cash offer with the stipulations that I could get the house inspected if they accepted the offer. If I could live with what was wrong I would go through on the offer, if not I had the right to back out and only be out the cost of...

Okay, so I managed to have a good discussion with my banks manager and my realtor (via a call). The realtor said anything could happen at this point and he is continuously checking with the realtor for this bank to see what is happening. He said its possible they could come back and accept my...

This time I will use a descriptive title :D (yes we can be taught). Okay, so I actually put an offer in on the house with the brick exterior. I put in a nice decent cash offer with only two stipulations on the banks end (septic inspection and a small $400 warranty). I was going to handle all...

I am looking at a home and I really like it but one of the things I want to know is how hard/easy a project this would be. I really do love this house but there are a few things that bug me. One of which being there is a side yard and a back yard, but only 2 doors on the house, both on the same...
