We'll see how it goes. The place is nice and spacious; needs some cosmetic work. Carpets cleaned/stretched, paint, cabinet work, gutters cleaned, deck redone...but other than that, nothing major. Should be a good starter home.

Houses are so much more expensive than you think they are. We planned on it being about 2k to get the house liveable, ie blinds or window coverings, deposits on utilities, replacing some appliances, etc. , and were shocked when it went over that but were lucky to have a large chunk in savings, just in case. Be prepared for it being more than you originally thought! My mother in law did warn us!

Fortunately, my dad remodeled homes professionally for 20+ years, and I have some experience doing it myself. I've got an idea of the costs involved, and we've got more than enough to cover it.
Utility deposits will be unnecessary; the utilities are through the same companies I've used for all of my residences here, and they waive the deposits every time because I've never had a late payment

I bet!
You can thank all the banks and deadbeats who worked the system a few years back for making it much more difficult today. I just refinanced last year with the SAME DAMN COMPANY who currently holds my mortgage and they needed so much BS including semen and DNA from your first born. I was very surprised how much more difficult it was just to refi, I can not imagine a purchase today.

Heck no, the only reason I gave it to IH is cause I know where he lives, and works, and what relatives of mine he's porked Don't want you stalkers raping me in my sleep (unless I ask for it).

DE also told me I could watch through the bedroom window as long as I cleaned the side of the house afterward.

Just make sure you put the pressure-washer back in the garage. Don't go borrowing it!

condolences.
I just closed on a house on tuesday, im about ready to die from exhaustion and/or heart attack.
gratz.. did you stay in the Woburn area?
Headed up to Methuen, couldnt afford as much as we wanted inside 93. At least Tax Free NH is next door, i keep running up to Salem's Home Depot to save some dough. Plus, this place has a garage. mmm.
The banks actually weren't a problem, got their approval two weeks ahead of closing. We put 20%+ down, so they were probably happier than a pig in s***.
The real hassle is getting the place ready to move in. So far i have had to file down holes in two metal doors to install deadbolts, which has ran me out of swear words. Last night i painted the largest ceiling in the house, didnt get back to the apartment till 1am.

I wanted to stay farther north, but the wife veto'd it. I ended up in Burlington as second choice, was trying for Wilmington, but there wasn't anything decent in our buying window. Everyone tells me how much they love our big "1/2 acre" lot but I used to have 2.5 acres off a lake in NH  And it was across from conservation land.
I work in Boston so it makes sense I guess now that I got hitched and has kids.

same here, as it is we only got .37 acres i think with the new place. We really wanted wilmington, but anything decent was just too expensive. Even the junk there was expensive. I lived in an aprtment there for a few years.

Houses are so much more expensive than you think they are. We planned on it being about 2k to get the house liveable, ie blinds or window coverings, deposits on utilities, replacing some appliances, etc. , and were shocked when it went over that but were lucky to have a large chunk in savings, just in case. Be prepared for it being more than you originally thought! My mother in law did warn us!
Fortunately, my dad remodeled homes professionally for 20+ years, and I have some experience doing it myself. I've got an idea of the costs involved, and we've got more than enough to cover it.
Utility deposits will be unnecessary; the utilities are through the same companies I've used for all of my residences here, and they waive the deposits every time because I've never had a late payment
Lucky bastard. I had all new utility companies and even though I was never late on a payment to the previous companies they still wanted to rape me with deposits.
Hope the entire process is amazing for you!

the flame is like a bic lighter, not impressive at all.
