well, in a gym is cool, but to have one in a house?? that's what i pictured when ts mentioned it. so if they built them a gym, then that's cool. must've been a big property
but i got no problems with an indoor bball court. although i prefer outdoor bball. it's what i grew up with
depends on where you live bro. i've got rain 8-9 months a year. i don't even live in a house but my apartment has an outdoor and indoor basketball hoop. during the winter every wednesday nights me and the boys from work get together and play a pick up game after work just to keep in decent shape.
i feel you, i spent 2 months in oregon when i was working at this place where i'm traveled a lot. it drizzled everyday. when i went to rent a car, they ran out of what i needed so they gave me a convertable mustang. i only got to have the top down a few times. sucked
Yes, the show pays off any existing mortgage on the property. The families that lost their extreme makeover homes re-mortgaged them and then couldn't afford the payments, so that was on them. I think one family used the equity in their home to finance a business and it failed. As for the increased property taxes I think there was only one family that had to sell because of that.
how do you remortgage something that was paid off? can you explain?
so if i pay off my house, and do an extreme makeover type remodeling, how does that affect me?
They got a new mortgage on the house, using the new bigger and better house as collateral for a large loan. Can't make those payments, then they take the collateral (house.)
If you do a big makeover on a house, even if it's paid off, the city or town will raise the property taxes on it to reflect the new value of the home. For example: we put new windows, doors, and a deck on our house and the taxes went up because it upped the value of the house. There is a process a home owner can go through to contest the city's property value assessment, but in our case we would have to have a private appraisal and that cost about $400 here.
If you don't pay the taxes the city will take your house and auction it off for the taxes owed. I've seen people loose their house over $1000 of unpaid property taxes. It sucks. My FIL buys these types of homes, sometimes for like $200, then fixes them up and re-sells. He makes money off people's bad luck, with is crappy IMO, because it is usually old people that loose their home like that in this area.
ok, so you're actually taking out a loan to pay the taxes
but i'd imagine the taxes on a monthly payment would be much less than a mortgage payment, no? then again, i guess it depends on what you add. pool, jakuze (ch sp), home theater, etc
