OT-Question for you?

[dphins]

Well, I bought the house, now I need to find some boxes. Anybody know of a good place to get some boxes?

A retail store on truck day!

When I moved I think I got about 25 large boxes from Marshalls. I just took all the boxes from the truck. I could've ended up with 100+ easily. :lol:

Just talk to a store manager and ask if he/she can hold them off to the side for you.

Go to the loading dock at Dierbergs or Schnucks and take some banana boxes. They don't care that's why they leave them out.

OK, I've been in the real estate business for 30 years but in the shopping center business so take this for what this is worth. The residentila real estate market has slowed down dramatically. What people seem to forgot is that the market has been crazy for the last 5 years. What you see now, is the real estate market as it should be.

Look for interest rates to drop in the next 60-90 days.

I need to refinance then.

 

[saltwater111]

I think rates will in the high 5's but less than 6%. For people who opted for 1-5 year arms several years ago, they are is for a shock.

Goto CraigsList. com and look under the "free" section for St Louis. There is always someone listing real moving boxes for free if you just go pick them up. When people move, they are always left with alot of boxes.

Uh... pic of the house please...

We're gonna see it in a couple months when we "tank tour" it, so you might as well post it!

Mike asked me to post a pic for him:

Probably shouldn't put a tank on that second floor, Mike....

 

[dphins]

That's about to scale!

 

[dphins]

Here's a more updated pic of it.

nice looking yard

 

[dphins]

Which picture?

 

[Mykayel]

nice house... you'll love actually owning a home. I know I do, and I have for a full 16 days now.

 

[dphins]

Are you done unpacking yet? I am not looking forward to the moving part. Plus, at the end of the month I go to Detroit for schooling. That doesn't leave me much time to get moved in.

 

[ReefWerkes]

This will be our second move in 5 months... once to leave the house we sold and now to move into the house we had built... I'm ready to settle in.

Luckily, we were able to leave most of the stuff in boxes. The kids did go through a lot of them though.

Agreed, saltwater111.
St. Louis Metro area is still a good living vs other big metro areas, homes will level to what it should be before the jump, the ones who cashed 110% out on refinancing for reef stuffs should be concerned JKD
