Originally posted by kingjason View PostMy buddy was going to give me over an acre so I could build next to him in Red Oak. However as it turns out Oncor has a gas line running through the acre with a 50 foot easement on both sides. What is bull shit is they supposedly have to have a 50ft easement but they ran the line within 12ft of his bedroom window.
All this was prior to him buying the house and he had no clue. We called Oncor 10 times and no one would ever get back to us. While I have no first hand knowledge, when I was digging around checking on all that, I spoke to the owner of Hunmiller homes as he was building in Lancaster at the time.He told me it was no problem as he had fought Oncor twice, once building almost right up to the gas line.
Somewhere around that time a big ole line of some sort took out a neighbor hood in California. I decided to go another route!
Could also happen when a person inherits land and doesn't know fully what they are getting, but you said he bought it.

Good luck this week!
Funny thing this morning, the 1st family that dropped their contract did a very slow drive by of our house this morning. I honestly hope they reconsider. I just won't allow them any option period and demand more earnest money.

Is it a good thing when your realtor texts you to not come home because someone is there weiting an offer?
*fingers crossed*
EDIT:
Realtor said we are expecting a minimum of two offers on Monday with two more being very probably. One family wants to come back again tomorrow afternoon to show the place to their parents.Last edited by Sgt Beavis; 03-25-2017, 03:43 PM.

Update Time:
As of last night we our out of the option period. W00T! We still have a termite inspection (required by the VA) and appraisal to get through but this buyer cannot back out now without choking up $3000 in earnest money. I've been keeping up on termite stuff over the last several years (regular treatments and termite detectors everywhere) so I'm not worried about that. The appraisal is slightly worrisome because we pushed the market value up for this house but my realtor is very confident we'll be OK.
My stress level on selling the house is finally subsiding a bit. Now I get to stress over moving. This is my schedule thus far:
April 13 - Fly to Denver for home inspection. Fly back to Denton that night.
April 14-16 - more packing
April 17 - Fly to Denver for home Demo and walk through. Fly back to Denton that night.
April 18 - Close on house in Denton
April 19 - Movers pick up our crap
April 20 - Drive to Amarillo (half way point to Denver)
April 21 - Drive to Denver.
April 22-23 - breath....
April 24 - Close on new house.
April 25 - movers "should" arrive with our crap...
April 26 - back to work.
As for the house in Denver, my realtor sent me some new pics. I'm not particularly fond of the color they went with here for the exterior. I actually liked the green primer they had on the Hardie board siding. I think I'll paint it back to green at some point.

Glad you go it sold my man, the move will hopefully come off without a hitch.
Did the builder ask you on the exterior color? I'd think you could choose what you wanted?

It's OK. I've already talked to the HOA. Painting isn't going to be a big deal as long as it fits within the community, which it does.
