That is Priceless by Steve Melcher for July 31, 2019

“You can double your money by flipping it to a couple from Manhattan who want to ‘return to the basics.’”

HOA is telling the owner to get rid of the basement suite.

“and they lived happily ever after until the next rain.”

“You know, I don’t think that house can stand the pass through another tornado.”

The hay is extra.

A pool of what…

Looks like there would be MANY pools !

Except for the mountains, for the price it might be in Orlando.

Slim number if selections in this neighborhood on “House Hunters.”

“But it’s a cesspool!!”

“A few nails, a little paint, and bingo ! Ya got a little gem !”

Southern living is gracious, they say / and perhaps it is, in some way / but wherever this man goes/ he hears “Dueling Banjos” / I fear he has gone astray…

Look, I’ll even throw in the blue critter with the white bow and the poorly painted tree.

Buyer: Come on, no one takes that 30 year shingle thing seriously.

Josef Wopfner paints his dream home. (He should see a psychiatrist about his dreams).

Got a pool and a pond. Pond would be good for you.

Remember it’s: Location, Location, Location!!

A million two and only a two hour commute to down town Vancouver? That’s a steal!

One of Norm Abram’s early builds.

In realtor-speak: “A cozy little fixer-upper.”

“Quick, call Chip and Joanna Gaines! I just KNOW there’s some ship-lap in there!!”

New HGTV show: “House Hunters: Poor Farm”

“Oh, this? It’s my mother-in-law’s house but you should see the 15 bedroom mansion we live in.”

this is definitely cape cod.

Woman in black: "Good afternoon sir. I’m with the government, and I’m here to help you!

“In addition to the birds in the rafters waking you at sunrise, the flight of the bats at sunset is quite spectacular.”

And the built-in barn makes taking care of the animals all the easier!

“Yes, Barney, this is the place of your birth.”

just a few pieces of tin will do, IF I get a little help from you miss, if you know what I mean.

“What ya complainin’ about woman? It’s professionally built to my abilities.”

..and, best of all, His AND Hers outhouses !

“And when the ocean levels rise as global warming begins in just another couple of hundred years, this mountainside cabin will become beachfront property. Think of it as a long-term investment.”
