New house
So I have begun my investment in real estate by buying a second house. Well I am on a limited budget here!
This is a nice dolls' house ("dollhouse" in American), and I bought it at the Mastic Beach village incorporation fund-raising yard sale on Saturday. It is about three feet wide and three feet high to the ridge of the roof. It is made of wood, and needs a little TLC and some new paint and deck repairs, and some small roof repairs and new flooring.
Sounds a little like the house I live in, before work began!
Now for a trip to eBay to track down some furniture...
I'm really enjoying your blog and I heartily approve of your real estate choices! I'm off to add you to my blog list :)
