Title: Anyone looking to buy a house?
Post by: derrickb52 on 2005-07-09T07:46:32-05:00 (Saturday)
Seriously, my neighbor just put up a "for sale" sign two days ago, and I am trying to find someone decent to come buy it before I end up next to another crazy person/family.

One of the benefits of being my neighbor... my wireless router (sans WEP) is right next to the wall (adjacent the house for sale), so free Internet for life!!  :-D

Oh yeah, I live in zip 63139, near Lindenwood park. They are "asking" $114k. Leave contact info if you or anyone you know might be interested...

114k near lindenwood park? Unless I'm missing something that's a good price for that area.  Of course I could be way off base.

Street parking, no garage, no paved alley, and it's 94 years old. It's well priced to sell even with those problems, and I imagine they'll get more than $100k for it. I haven't been inside it yet, but have been talking to my realtor about having a look just for the fun of it...

It's hard to tell from the maps what major Interstates is it located near? (although I'm not interested, I know some people that might be)

It's about 5 blocks SE of I-44.. 3 blocks north of the park.

But the real question is:   How long is the walk to Ted Drewes?  :-)

Hmm.... it's walkable! Ten minutes?

I walked to JCPenny's at hampton and chippewa, which is close to double the distance to Ted Drewes.
