Buy it!!<br /><br />I'll bet the owner would work out all sorts of deals for you in order to get it off his hands, judging by what one of your reader's posted. <br /> <br />Ask for:<br />-Owner Financing<br />-Closing costs paid by Owner<br />-Reduce Price?<br />-Closing date 6-9 months from now.<br /><br />The biggest question would have to be, do you want to live in Union Springs?<br /><br />Don't do anything too spontanious.<br />This really would be a big decision.
