Odd? offer... (Get out of Urban Amerika Free...)

Post by Old Ironsights »

Any well established forumite (i.e. you ain't a newbie) who wants/needs to get out of Urban Amerika can move to Lingle WY. and inhabit my old storefront home FOR FREE until they (A) find work and/or (B) hopefully buy it from me or (C) I sell it before I lose it when I can't re-fi in Jan '16.

I'm bleeding about $500/mo right now out of a $2000/mo net, so I really need to move this place - but I am willing to help someone else get out of Zombieland ...

Contact me...

You have a nice place. 8) I won't be ready to pick up and move for a few more years (maybe) or I would consider it. Great little town too, and since I don't work anymore.....

I saw it. My mind just went to full "how do I do this mode".

OI will be talking to you.

A population of about 500 and an elevation of 4,100' sounds great to me.

Email sent.

See, if I were sensible, I would just walk away from it since I can't re-fi in 2016 anyway. But I'm too stubborn/good to my word/contract to do so.

But if I can help someone by providing a place to flop whilst they look for work in a Free State, then maybe Karma will apply. Who knows?

Currently it's in the process of being listed by "Wagons West Realty" in Torrington for about $56K

It's an old storefront that has been converted to a 1 bedroom, 1+1/2 "super studio" (my term) with full basement, shed, full lot (gravel parking) and some landscaping. No garage. I think the total SF is around 1500sf (about 700sf/level).

All standard appliances are there, so it's effectively "move-in-able" as a short term/rental type place.

casastahle,

You're assuming that Google has sent a car past the house! :)

I could give you my address and you'd discover that Google hasn't even done my whole town, let alone my street. We just aren't that important here in flyover country you know.

Good luck Old Ironsights.

Before I had the address I'd found it on the satellite view just from the memories of OI's old pics.

But even though there are the blue stripes in the road I couldn't get the street view to show.

Joe, I'm thinking you and your lovely bride could live there, and perhaps even use the downstairs for some part-time business with one of your hobbies - trading or selling sewing machine parts, reloading, or what-not.

Next time I'm back there collecting stuff from the shed I'll take more pictures, particularly of the workbench/shop area.

Oh... I left my Freezer/Gunsafe too. Wouldn't fit in the rental here in Riverton.

I always thought that the main "livingroom/Kitchen" space would make a nice Coffee Shop. Unfortunately there would be few customers.

There is, however, a complete, almost turnkey Restaurant as well as a (seperate business) Bar for sale in town.

Now, if'n you know a highly moneyed type wanting a posh place to live and a nice industrial/office space to do some light manufacturing, there is one of both available in Lingle too...

O it's there. Street view comes in just fine.
For some reason, I just had to street view right up to the front of 221. :wink:

May know of someone interested, but he has some medical issues.

How far is the closest hospital/medical facility? Any VA facility in the area?

There is a hospital in Torrington, a Regional hospital/Trauma center 40mi away in Scottsbluff, and the VA is in Cheyenne (88mi)

Wow, what a generous offer!

I 'drove' around a bit with Google maps and earth and liked what I saw. Mentioned it to the mama bear.

I need broadband internet for my work and she needs delivery pizza. Guess it ain't gonna happen.

Broadband ain't a problem. The cable network hub is right across the alley.

Delivery Pizza OTOH... :?

I told her about the cable.

Reminded her how much she likes my cooking, including my cast iron skillet tortilla bar pizzas. She's still not buying it.

Wonder how much I would miss her. (grin)
