Two down, one to go

When we decided to do the loop, we also decided it was time to get rid of property. We didn’t want to be landlords any longer with the Chicago condo and fortunately a real estate development company had decided a few years ago that they wanted to buy all the condos in the building. After 3 long years of negotiations to get at least 75% of the owners to agree to sell, that sale finally closed just before Christmas – one down. We also decided it was pointless to keep the Michigan condo since we wouldn’t be there for at least a year. We sold it on a land contract that was paid off today – two down. Now we just have our house in Lafayette – and it’s going back on the market within the next month. We don’t know when we will finish this adventure or where we will go once it ends, but we know Lafayette won’t be a permanent residence. So if anyone wants a very nice house in Lafayette we know where you can find one!

They did a second day of photos yesterday. They had the boat out in the Gulf when I looked out at 9,brought it back in a couple of hours later, and continued working until almost 4.

  1. Congratulations on the two thirds purging–it must feel good to be through being landlords and to have the freedom to travel unencumbered. You both deserve it!

    • We still have the Lafayette house to worry about – is the snow getting shoveled, the lawn mowed, the fish still alive, the heat/a/c still working, etc. It would be nice to not have to worry about that.
