We found a house, loved it, and made an offer that was accepted. As far as the Wyoming house went...I remember saying, "oh, don't worry Sweetheart, it'll sell in a heartbeat". Oh boy...I sure blew that call! No sale of the home materialized, even after three tries with three different realtors over those years.
Therefore, for the past 8 years, that house has been a rental. I now know beyond a shadow of a doubt that I do not care to make Landlording my avocation. No thanks, don't want the hassle, no way, no how. We had good renters and bad renters; fortunately, the good ones were in the majority.
So, it is with great joy that I publish this photo, showing the absolutely lovely SOLD sign atop the realtor's For Sale placard. Ah, thank God Almighty, free at last, we're free at last, as the late Dr. M.L. King so eloquently stated many years ago.
It will take a while to get used to one mortgage payment, one property tax bill, one insurance invoice, and the lack of extra responsibilities an additional property adds to one's life, but I think we'll get accustomed to the change very quickly!
