I'm thinking about selling everything I own.
I'm thinking about selling everything I own.
We're buying a house in Woodstock. It would be nice to not have a mortgage. If we decide to do it that way, I have to sell almost everything I own. If I do it, some will go to eBay and some will be listed here. I don't have many flutes left, but I still have quite a few superb whistles. In any case, the instruments I still have are my favorites. Be prepared.

- Tell us something.: I restore 19th century flutes, specializing in Rudall & Rose, and early American flutes. I occasionally make new flutes. Been at it for about 15 years.

Well Jessie would have some problems becoming a monk, besides her kid and husband, they have a gender preference...daiv wrote:honestly i though it would say, "i'm going to become a monk"Jumbuk wrote:And I thought the message would be: "... to buy another flute". How disappointing, just a house!
Well, good luck to you Jessie, but at least keep one nice flute.

You are truly lucky (or blessed) to have been able to sell. We moved from a little old farmhouse to a brick home 50% bigger and are SO missing the small payments, especially with a kid starting college next year and the possibility of both losing our jobs (which are linked the housing market). Oh yeah, did I mention we live in Michigan? There are sooo many houses for sale here.....
It took a year and a half and a 36% drop in price to sell our house. Woodstock, though, where we are now, is still in demand, so there aren't many houses available for sale. It's interesting to be on the selling side of one house and the buying side of another. It gives us an understanding of our buyer and our seller.

You must have a lot of flutes to make that much of a difference in whether or not you'll have a mortgage. Isn't there some other way to come up with the money? Sell all but one?
