Tuesday night
Tired. Stress realllllly makes you tired. The mold smell is REALLY getting old right about now.
The builder came and will take care of the west wall which is the leaky wall. No charge, and we’ve been out of warranty for a while now. They are trying really hard to please us. But this is the fourth time they tried to fix the water intrusion in this wall. He says it’s cracks in the stucco, again, for the third time. He wants to fix all cracks, caulk all windows, and reapaint the whole house. He has to convince one more guy and then his boss will OK it. I hope it goes well.
I’ve been house hunting and new houses in our area are alot. We got a great deal on this house 3 years ago and now similar houses are WAY more than what we paid. We’ll make a profit on our house if we sell now, but man, the new houses, even smaller ones, are way more than this is worth now. So, we may just try our hardest to keep this house dry so we can hold on to it longer. It’s appreciated 40k in 3 years, so if we can keep it dry, we can make a killing later (as I have NO intention of living in this stinkhole of a town/state for the rest of my life). I just hope this neighborhood holds it’s value. High-value homes are going up all around it but alot of ppl have had problems w/ their homes, so it’s POSSIBLE that values could go down if too much word got out about the problems. *sigh* One day at a time. So so so so tired.
