Bam. Under contract. Still have to wait for inspection and appraisal, but I'm sure it will appraise north of $100k. The listing agent tried to get the owners to list it for $102k, but they panicked and wanted out quick because they closed on another house. Right place, right time. It was listed at noon, I was in it by 6pm, and an offer was made by 10pm. 7am the next day I had a verbal acceptance (along with telling me that she cancelled 8 showings for that day), and under contract 10 hours later.
All appliances convey, new natural gas forced air furnace in 2012 with an evaporator in case I want to add central air. Big 1-car garage 12x30 with storage overhead and room to add to it. With my down payment, I'm anticipating a monthly of about $135
One of my favorite parts was that I saw this Buddha statue in the back yard and I had my agent write it in as a stipulation that "Buddha stays." I win.
Massive congratulations, man! May it house you well.
congrats
garage pics? cuz GRM
It’s on Berkley St…are you Berking kidding me.
Congrats
You really did get that berkeleying house you were looking for!!!!
I laughed out loud at the street name. I also will admit to maybe considering buying it partly JUST because of the street name.
No pics other than in the listing, so I don't have garage inside pics. Its currently occupied and the garage is pretty full anyway. These photos might disappear soon once I close on it.
Congrats!
So... how many times did you chuckle saying "Berkley St"... and have those around you think you're a bit off? 
Cool. Congrats.
Please modify your street sign to spell "BERKELEY" correctly. And if there was ever a GRM vote for Most Likely To Live On berkeley Street, I'd vote for Curtis!
Yay!

Who would've thought it was hiding in plain sight the whole time, just waiting for him to check the relevant street?
Congrats!
Congrats! I agree the Buddha is awesome.
Now everyone send Curtis a box of random MGA parts to fill his garage with and he too can tell SWMBO he just needs one more part.
Yes! Berkley Street! lol
Congrats man, glad you finally found your house!
Congrats! fingers crossed everything goes all the way through.
Spectacular!
Are there any rules near you that the garage can only be a percentage of the house size?
Congrats! Hope it serves you well.
Woo! It's cute already, but I'm seeing a front porch on it so you can sit and enjoy the view of that huge lawn. Looks like a score--can't wait for more pics.

Congratulation!!! It looks to be perfect. Love that huge front yard and long setback.
Well done, sir!
Is the basement... dry, tall enough to stand in?
And congratulations. Great timing. Bonus points for water cooled Buddha.
excellent!
A little interesting that Margie has requested berkeley pics!
Congratulations. Of course all I saw was the huge parking lot out front. 
Congratulations!
Congrats! And plenty of lawn for Lawn Art....
