During school, I lived in the dorms.
After I graduated, I lived in a dwelling complex where all of the service was taken care of.
When I bought my first house, I had no idea of the labor involved. I also was restricted to a really limited budget. I couldn’t afford to hire an electrician, plumber, roofer or Heating as well as A/C contractor to handle upkeep. I faced constant troubles. Googling offered information that helped a lot. I learned that when there was really little water pressure from the faucet, I needed to rinse out the aerator. I figured out how to change the filter in the air conditioner, drain the water furnace and clean the gutters. I was not overly conscientious about cleaning the dryer vent. I am never busy repairing with a professional. The dryer was severely ancient and not vented. Lint gradually built up within the unit. Although I observed that my clothes were taking longer to dry and coming out of the unit quite hot, it never occurred to me that there was a dangerous problem developing. Lint is especially flammable. The dryer caught on fire when I was at work. The fire spread swiftly and caused extensive disfigurement before it was observed. The fire department also caused a great deal of disfigurement in their effort to put out the sparks. I was left with a dwelling that was not safe to live in. The cost of repairs was far more than I could afford. The dwelling could not be sold via conventional methods. It would not pass safety, health or local building codes. Even the roof needed to be replaced. With no other options, I decided to try selling the loft to a money dwelling buyer. In Jacksonville, FL, there are many companies willing to buy houses “as-is.” I chose a family-owned supplier that is local and has acquired a stellar reputation. I offered some information by way of an online contact form and received an offer that same afternoon.
