After a quick visit to DC, we’re back! We ran to DC to take care of the house there… someone (cough… fucking realtors… cough) left a window open during a rain storm and damaged a wall upstairs. On top of that, sump pump had burned itself out. I guess these things happen when you get 12″ of rain in 2 days…<\/p>\n
While in DC, a realtor came over to show the house… so we disappeared for a few hours. When we came back to the house, all of the lights inside were on, the porch lights were off, and the BACK DOOR WAS WIDE OPEN!!! Did I mention I hate realtors!??!??!<\/p>\n
Anyways… back to IN and “The Fabulous Fire Hazard”… We get to move in today!!! That’s right, today I perform a move-out inspection for Crystal in Apt #4. I have no point of reference for the damage to apartment, so I just have walk through, nod, look disappointed, and write her a check for her full deposit. This is the first of five. Hopefully I’ll get the hang of it and not cry too much.<\/p>\n
After I check her out of the place, I hope to grab our wonderful air mattress and start squatting in my own house! A little explanation… <\/p>\n
The house has 5 apartments. Apt 1 on the ground floor is the largest: a 1 bedroom with a huge living room, full bath, and nice kitchen. Apt 2, also on the ground floor, is an large efficiency: one large bedroom with a small kitchenette from the 50’s and full bath. Apt 3 on the 2nd floor is a medium efficiency with the same 50’s kitchenette and a really nice full bath. Apt 4 is next 3 on the 2nd floor: a 1 bedroom with a nice living room, hallway, full bath, and mediumish kitchen. Apt 5 is back on the ground: a small studio with a small (but full-sized) kitchen and full bath.<\/p>\n
So where do we live in all of this craziness? Good question. The current plan is… Combine apt 1 and apt 2 into my own living space. There is a doorway between the two apartments that has been drywalled over. So once I have access to those apartments, I’ll open it up and make the 2 into 1. For those counting, that a 2 bed, 2 bath (the kitchenette will go away). The two upstairs apartments (3 and 4) will be easily combined to make another very large 2 bed, 2 bath apartment. Apt 5 is pretty well separated, so it’ll just stay that way. That a total of three separate living spaces, all with separate entrances! Hopefully it will all come together….<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
