So here is the plan, right or wrong, stupid or just plain nutz, I don't care...I'm gonna do it! The other night I come home and the wife outta the blue says...we should sell this place, downsize and move to Galveston. At first I thought...no way, you work at the Med Center and I work off 45 at 610...why would we move like that and drive more? Then I got to thinking....I drive that way all the time on my days off, why not just reverse it. Maybe in the near future I could get a transfer to our Texas City Refinery and with the savings over the house costs my wife could go to 3 days a week instead of 4. Plus, driving to the far East side of League City at traffic time probably takes as much time to do as driving down 45 to say Bayou Vista....not much difference really.
Long story short...Saturday we will be heading down to look at apartments and see what gives. Plan is to rent off the wall for awhile(6 months-a year) and see how we like it). In the meantime we'll be scouring the Westend market for someplace to put the equity we have saved and hopefully make off the sale of our place in Harbor Park subdivision in LC....at least that is what I hope all plays out.
So soon, I will be placing a buttload of stuff up for sale or donation...25 years of marriage, and 14 in 1 house, you accumulate a lot of sh....! Won't be quick unless we get a fast sell and I don't see that happening either, but you never know. What I do know, I like this choce over my wifes other choice of the Woodlands!
Anyway, anyone got any good leads on apartments...right now, we're looking at The Oceanfront around 69th St and Seawall. I tend to want on that end vs the middle because of crowds during peak months. Nice looking complex and quite a few ammenaties, plus the one we like has a waterview.
Kenny....your reef is fixing to get a lot more crowded!
