SALE BY OWNER - TOWN HOUSE IN FOREST BROOK GLEN (NEAR NEWPORT)

BEFORE I DESCRIBE THE HOUSE, PLEASE NOTE THAT I CANNOT RENT IT (MY MORTGAGE CO. RULES AND H.U.D. RULES). ALSO, ONLY MY IMMEDIATE FAMILY (WITH ADEQUATE CREDIT) CAN TAKE OVER MY PAYMENTS (WELLS FARGO RULES). CANNOT DO RENT TO BUY (OTHERWISE KNOWN AS PURCHASE MONEY MORTGAGE - WELLS FARGO MUST BE PAID OFF). ANYONE WITH THESE IDEAS IN MIND, PLEASE DON`T CALL...WE`LL ONLY BE WASTING EACH OTHERS TIME. ALSO, IF YOU ARE A HOUSE HUSTLER (ESPECIALLY THOSE OF YOU WHO TACK YOUR SIGNS ON TELEPHONE POLES `WE PAY CASH FOR HOUSES`), PLEASE NOTE THAT I AM NOT DESPERATE OR IN FORCLOSURE AND CAN AFFORD TO LIVE HERE `FOREVER`, BUT THERE ARE OTHER HOUSING OPTIONS THAT I PLAN TO PURSUE. LET ME ADD THAT I HAVE NOTHING AGAINST HOUSE HUSTLERS (IN FACT, I THINK IT`S A SMART IDEA FOR MAKING MONEY) BUT YOU CANNOT `STEAL` THIS HOUSE. THAT SAID, LET ME DESCRIBE THE HOUSE:

THE TOWN HOUSE IS LOCATED IN A QUIET CUL-DE-SAC (CIRCLE) IN THE SHADED, WOODED DEVELOPMENT KNOWN AS FOREST BROOK GLEN. THE MAIN ENTRANCE TO THE DEVELOPMENT (FOREST DRIVE) IS SLIGHTLY NORTH OF THE TOWNSHIP OF NEWPORT (ALTHOUGH NOT A PART OF NEWPORT) BUT IS CONSIDERED WILMINGTON WITH JURISTRICTION FROM NEW CASTLE COUNTY (POLICE, FIRE, PROPERTY TAXES [LOW], ETC.). ACCESS TO THIS MAIN ENTRANCE IS OFF RT.4 (NEWPORT PK. WHICH BECOMES MARYLAND AVE. AS YOU GO NORTH). ENTRANCE INTO THE DEVELOPMENT CAN ALSO BE ACCESSED VIA AYRE ST. IN NEWPORT. THE HOUSE IS AN END UNIT AND ONE OF FOUR HOUSES THAT FORM THE CIRCLE, GIVING IT A HUGE YARD (LARGE ENOUGH FOR AN OLYMPIC SIZE SWIMMING POOL, PLUS A SMALL PLAYGROUND, AND A GARDEN). IT DOES NOT CONTAIN THESE FEATURES NOW, BUT CAN BE ADDED IF SO DESIRED. IT IS A 2 STORY BRICK HOUSE FEATURING 4 BEDROOMS, 2 FULL BATHS, AND A FULL BASEMENT. IT HAS A STEEL & CONCRETE BILCO DOOR, GIVING ACCESS FROM BASEMENT TO YARD & VICE-VERSA. IT ORIGINALLY HAD 3 BEDROOMS ON THE 2nd. FLOOR, BUT THE 4th. WAS ADDED IN THE PARTIALLY FINISHED BASEMENT WITH THE 2nd. BATHROOM BUILT INTO THAT BEDROOM. THE REST OF THE BASEMENT CONTAINS THE GAS FURNACE (WITH CENTRAL A/C), HOT WATER HEATER, WASHER & DRYER, WASH BASIN (WHICH WASH WATER EMPTIES INTO), & STORAGE CLOSET. UPGRADES THAT I PAID TO HAVE DONE SINCE I LIVED HERE ARE AS FOLLOWS:

6 FT. WOODEN STOCKADE PRIVACY FENCE (WITH FRONT & BACK GATES) SURROUNDING THE HUGE YARD.

ASPHALT 2 CAR DRIVEWAY IN FRONT OF HOUSE (2 CAR PARKING NOT SIDE BY SIDE, BUT IN LINE).

WHITE VINYL FENCING ON EACH SIDE OF DRIVEWAY.

SHINGLE ROOF REPLACED (NOT A COVER-OVER OLD SHINGLES, BUT OLD ROOF TORN OFF & REPLACED WITH NEW).

EVERY WINDOW IN HOUSE REPLACED WITH TOP GRADE DOUBLE PANE WITH ARGON GAS BETWEEN PANES.

OLD SYSTEM REPLACED WITH 150 AMP ELECTRIC SYSTEM WITH EXTRA BREAKER SWITCHES (INSTALLED).

OLD OIL BURNER REPLACED WITH MODERN GAS FURNACE WITH CENTRAL A/C UNIT.

OLD HOT WATER HEATER REPLACED WITH TOP BRAND (BRADFORD WHITE).

ALL MAJOR APPLIANCES STAY WITH HOUSE (REFRIGERATOR, GAS STOVE, WASHER, DRYER, DISHWASHER*)

*DISHWASHER - CAME WITH HOUSE. I NEVER HOOKED IT UP. LOOKS FRESH, BUT CAN`T GUARANTEE IT WORKS.

ASKING PRICE IS $115K PS FOR OTHER TOWN HOUSES IN THIS COMMUNITY ARE BETWEEN $129.9K & $139.9K.
MOST OF THE OTHERS DON`T HAVE AS MANY UPGRADES AS MINE AND ARE STILL LISTING FOR THE ABOVE PRICES. ONE
ACROSS THE STREET WAS LISTED FOR $129.9K, BUT SOLD FOR $120K. IT WAS AN END UNIT WITH SOME UPGRADES, BUT
NO DRIVEWAY OR HUGE YARD. I SPOKE WITH THE REALTOR MYSELF. SHE SAID HER COMPANY OWNED IT AND WAS IN IT
CHEAP AND IS WHY SHE LET IT GO FOR LESS.

I CAN BE REACHED BY PHONE AT -(Phone number)- . NO EMAILS PLEASE. THEY MAY OR MAY NOT BE RELAYED TO MY EMAIL IN A TIMELY MANNER. ALSO, BE SURE TO READ THE PREFACE AT THE BEGINING OF THIS AD BEFORE CALLING.
THANK YOU.
