Dallas Real Estate: Please Don’t Sit on the Hearth!
I am really worried about that lonely little rock holding up that hearth. If someone who might be charged for two seats on Southwest Airlines sits down with a glass of spiked eggnog in his hand… that hearth is going to be history. I mean, people live in houses and sit on hearths and the whole world does not take Alli. This was yet another one of the glorious finds in that fixer-upper I toured on Townsend. Folks, you cannot trust the photos on the internet. This fireplace was touted as a “stacked stone fireplace.” Stacked it is, all right.

Hopefully people are touring the houses and not trusting photos prior to making an offer!
Question: cannot leave a comment on your 10 Shadywood “sale of the week.” Great house, but don’t you think they’d be better off NOT doing 1/2 way remodels (eg granite on old cabinets, etc) and just sell it as is for less? Especially in a higher-end ‘hood? I would be inclined to rip that kitchen out and start over, but they are charging a premium for their “updates.”
The only thing that will be stacked are the lawsuits from the people suing for hurting themselves on your property due to the faulty and unsecured hearth.
I had the same thought, JV, when I read about all the recent updates. Did the seller think those things needed to be done in order to sell, or did they do them and THEN decide to sell? Personally, I would almost always rather a seller leave things be because their taste may not be mine, and I don’t want to pay for their new shag carpet when I’m going to rip it out and put in berber.
@ modterm – If you knew that you were going to put in berber, why would the home’s current flooring matter?
P.S. My Greek flokati wool shag rug has a message for your berber carpet: Go #@%$ yourself!
Sure wish I had come across this site sooner. Good posts.
Great site. Thanks for your thoughts.
