House Update

Sadly, we pulled our offer from the house we were interested in. The inspector went into the crawl space first because foundation safety was high on the list of importance. He pulled off the crawl space cover and said, "Dead rat... oh another one... and another one". Then finds the insulation has been some sort of critters home for quite a while (maybe a rat?!) and to top it off, the final straw, it's a brick foundation with a tremendous amount of water seepage. Not good. The inspector thinks it is an old I-5 home -- moved to it's current place when I-5 was put in. And put there poorly with a crappy foundation.
So we continue the hunt. . . .
