i know i should paint them, they’re maroon. They go with a mediterranean look, but not very vintage indie. i’m thinking of this yellow.

Open Question: How much less should I ask for a house because of these damages?
Author: adminAug 31
I am currently renting a home from a landlord, who has recently informed me that he wants to sell it. He said that obviously they would offer it to us first. He hasn’t mentioned a price yet, but since we have lived here for 1+ years, we know all the things that are wrong and need fixed. I was wondering how much less could I ask for the house because of the following problems. (even thought most would be a quick and cheap fix)
Very few cabneits and are installed incorrectly and dont shut properly
Washer drain is backed up and floods every time you do laundry (mold is growing)
2 windows don’t have the inside seals on them
75% of the floor doesnt have the molding around it, and the part that does is chipped and cracked
The garage is cracked and leaning or something and the garage door wont shut all the way and cannot be used
There’s a hole in the living room at the base of the wall where it meets the floor
The ceiling leaks everytime it rains in one of the bedrooms
there’s NO inslation in the entire house except for the attic
The kitchen counter top has cracks and chips around the corners
Don’t even get me started on the bathroom
it does have it’s good points
New windows
new cabeits (even though they’re crooked)
New appliances
new carpet
newly painted
new linolium (but it’s uneven)
Large fenced backyard
This was my childhood home for 13 years. After 10 years, I saw it was up for rent, and moved in. My old room, is now my daughters room, weird huh?! It’s a very cute house, a little over 1200 sq feet, it just needs some TLC. I know the neighbor bought his house for $125,000 which also needed repairs, but his is a lot bigger and a corner lot. (For an example of prices in our area, Kelso, Washington)
So how much do you think I should pay, or how much should I ask off of the asking price?

Author: adminAug 31
Ok my baby painted turtle (Keto) has stopped eating
BEFORE he would eat fine, i would feed him by hand 2 times a day or so and he also has some plants in his tank that he could eat, he also has guppies but he can’t catch them
NOW he wont eat, and he is scared of me, he is also sunning himself a lot but when he is in the water he is usually keeps swimming at the tank walls
-the water doesn’t seem to be cold and he has a very big tank and its not dirty, the only thing he doesn’t have is a UVB light which i haven’t gotten yet could that be the problem?
Please Help
PS. I’m not going to pay $60 dollars to go see a vet, I don’t have the money, so please don’t suggest it.
He has a UVA light just not a UVB
