I’ve never seen those ones, but they do look dumpy. We were referring to the ones behind our favorite vietnemise restaurant. Wilma lives there and although they look older on the outside, they are very nice on the inside. Waiting game, I guess.

There are some townhouses there? I had no idea. Where are they? Oh are they the Pleasantview ones, near on 51ave and 106st? Because I knew a few people who lived in one of those and it was a dump.

At any rate, the condo I was thinking of seems to be gone; the sign was not there yesterday.

By the way, I signed out GEB again. I’ll give it another try.

Aye, catspace is a primary requirement, as is some kind of yard, even if not a large one. There’s some decent townhouse-style condos we’ve looked at near our old house, I wouldn’t mind moving in to one of those.

I can undestand why you want a townhouse, though. More room for the cats, too. If I could help you out there, I would, but the only ones I know of are somewhere on the north side, and that’s rather vague.

You’re not bursting my bubble! It’s just the only one I could think of off the top of my head. Of course there are always some in the blocks across the street from me, too, but I have no idea how much they are and they are apartment style. I have no idea about this one I mentioned, where it is or what it looks like or anything. Chris asked for suggestions, and I had one. That’s all.

Sorry to burst your bubble, Mel, but those condos (if they’re the ones I’m thinking of) run at at least 160. We can buy a house for that much. And they aren’t that great. If we’re going to get a condo, it will at least be a townhouse since we need 3 bedrooms. And an apartment would be way too small. condo fees are usually unreasonable in apt style ones, anyway.

Sadly, the odds of us having $10,000 as a down payment are very, very slim unless some form of fiscal miracle comes up. That being said, maybe we should have a look at it.

Where is it? And do they list a phone number? A comfree sale number?

Oh yeah it’s available immediately, too.

I think there may be one in my area, actually. There was a sign up for it last week, it’s a for sale by owner. I will look for the sign again if you want tomorrow. It’s 2 beds, 2 baths and they are asking for $10k minimum as the downpayment.
