The previous owner going "tile crazy" is an understatement. The 1x1 tiles on the dry bar is just wrong, too much grout to keep clean on a surface that will likely get dirty often. I personally hate tile counters, my dad has them at his house, they just look cheap. The tile up the stairs is retarded. The multi-colored tile just looks like it could be annoying, at least on its own with no decorations to take your eye off it.

Sorry for being so critical. I recently remodeled our house so I had to deal with the ugly and laid tile and did a custom shower and such. The house has the potential. Happy remodeling, have fun with that sledge hammer getting all that tile out

I didn't even show you the tile patterns. We're going to replace just about everything with wood flooring. I have samples in the mail right now. The only tile in the house is going to be in the kitchen and bathrooms. I just hope that they didn't adhere the tile directly onto the subfloor on the second floor.

Property is dirt cheap in Texas for y'all thinking that the price is crazy low.

Wow I need to move to Texas.

Just one of the reasons I didn't move to Costa Mesa when I had the chance.

I Hope you are keeping the money wall, shits on point son. Quick question did Paul Wall leave any Grillz behind?

FStop7 · 05-10-2009, 09:18 PM

The money wall needs to go away. Since it's a foreclosure I'm guessing the previous owner would have been better off putting that cash into his bank account rather than wallpapering with it. /facepalm

Yeah it does. That's my media room.

You can't request rooms to be painted on a short sale/foreclosure prior to closing? You're going to paint over the red I assume? That's going to be a pain in the arse!

There's primer that is specifically used for covering dark paint. I will buy 5 gallons of that.

I'm painting the garage and the door to match the white accent over the door.

Spool · 05-10-2009, 11:11 PM

Yeah, I think the HOA is getting pissed because the grass is in bad shape.

I personally hate HOA. The older and calmer folks generally love. Great home for the price btw!
