Our New Home
Well, after many days of looking and fighting off the anxiety of having to move to a rental, we have finally found our new home to be! The selling realator calls it a "Dollhouse", we will soon be calling it home!
The home is located in Kittery, Me and is so close to work that I can walk to it! My wife, who works at the town hall, can drive there in less than a few minutes. As you can see, these are very nice perks. Ok, now on to the details of this new real estate that is going to cost us well over a quater million in the next 30 years!
It's a 1940 construction that was originaly a two-story mini house! It sits upon a solid ledge and had had a complete renovation of the inside and out! All utilities have been updated and everything from the vinyl siding to the rug and paint is new!
The only thing missing is a refrigerator and we just found a great deal on a Hotpoint at HomeDepot! It was a floor model - still new for $250 off of the regular price.
We can now finally enjoy the luxury of crushed and cubed ice, along with cold filtered water in the door!
Yea, and there is a child lock for keeping the muchies away ; )
Ok, so you have it. A new (to us) home and the pressure of making that $1600 p/month mortgage payment (tax and insurance included) ! Now, to get back to making some serious cash online!

Rob,
I really enjoyed looking through your blog! Congratulations on the new home in Kittery. I was born and raised there. Living in Vermont now. I appreciate your Christian witness on this blog, and the video of the old lady and the car caught by the skateboarders is hilarious! What section of Kittery is your home in? Kittery or Kittery Point? I lived just off 236 almost in Eliot on Fernald Rd. Blessings!
