That I have. I will post pictures up after we close or something. Well at least once I get in with the inspector I will try and get something. But the new place is smaller 1400 sq ft. 2 car on 0.4 acres it is very country cottage feeling with cedar roof and similiar other appointments. Brand new kitchen with all high end appliances aside from a fridge that I will have to buy when I move in. This one was last appriased 2 years ago for well over double what I am paying because it is a foreclosure now. Disgusting but it allows me to buy a nice house in one of the best and most desirable neighborhoods in bloomfield township so I won't complain one bit.

Well she's bought and financed and after a week and a half and most of my savings being spent on upfront updates and appliances we might actually be able to live there tonight or tomorrow night. I will try and get up some decent pictures someday but all I have now are crap my sister took and let me tell you she can't take a damn picture to save her life. But either way we are pretty happy, master is trim paint away from a complete facelift being done (remove carpet and polish the hardwood floors underneath, clean up wall and ceiling plaster and 3-5 coats of paint and primer every surface. Main bath is 1/2 way through minor facelift. Then once I am in I get to do the other two bedrooms but all the supplies are already bought for those rooms so that is at least a little easier.

Awesome man! When's the house warming party

[Jorgen]

Well it has taken my just over a week to even get to sleep there but last ngith was the first night. Probably 2-3 more days tog et the master completely done but that is getting close. After that 2 more rooms need almost as much attention, the basement needs to be tiled up again and the then I get to move outside and take care of some things there. So I am thinking I will be ready for a house warming come november, lol...

Somebody didn't read the posts in the middle of the thread. I didn't end up buying the one pictured at the top. I bought a different one in bloomfield hills just north of maple west of telegraph.

is there a google streetview of it?

[Jorgen]

4165 orchard way bloomfield hills michigan - Google Maps

No street view yet just have to settle for sat photos from above still. It is the one on the south side fo the street with 2 cars in the drive behind the house and the angled garage that faces the rear.
