Well, it seems to be official. The landlord has decided not to make the repairs on this house, but to sell it instead. Problem is that what they are asking is more than this house is worth. Certainly more than what we would be willing or able to pay. And with Troy still unemployed, we would not be likely to get financing right now. So the Warren has to move in the next 30-60 days. We are looking for a 4+ Bedroom, 2 Bath house with garage & yard somewhere preferably in the East Bay for less than $2500, preferably around $2000 a month with one year lease (that will allow cats).
We will have to pack and move everything! and your help would certainly be appreciated.
We are worried that without Troy having a job, it will be hard to find anyone willing to rent to us. So we also hope that happens soon too. So far, all four jobs he has interviewed with have turned him down. Sigh.
And since we don't have the money to move right now and we don't want to take it all with us, we are having several yard sales. The first two will beginning this weekend, Sat. Aug. 9th 9am-4pm and again Sat. Aug. 23 9am-4pm. If you are able to help with these, that would also be great!
If you can't actually come over and help, and even if you can, your good wishes, positive energy, etc. are very appreciated as well!

Date: 2003-08-10 02:26 am (UTC)Oh, no. I'm going to miss your old place too. I hope the new one will serve you well.
Obviously, don't worry about my request for house hunting help, unless you should happen to notice something interesting while you are looking. I will post a list of qualities we are seeking tomorrow. We've got a few leads, and a willing helper with some free time, so I'm thinking Anna and I will be ok. I hope we can land a place before the move, but I expect we can manage if we don't. Should I need to stay at your place a few days (Anna can stay at her friend Naomi's place), would that be ok? I can help you pack :)
My best advice for moving...do something toward that goal every day. I am and man, it is making this move soooo much easier. Pack a couple boxes today, update my resume tomorrow, etc.
Don't know what help I can offer, since I will be settling in at the same time you are packing up, but I will do what I can. Dawn, I sympathize with your plight, miss your companionship, and will be back really soon...THREE WEEKS!!
*gentle hugs and head scritches*
