One wonders. Up til now, the house you're in has always been your "bug out" location when building or buying another property and your old digs got sold.
Will you be setting up a tent in the daughter's back yard while the new place is built? Purchasing a Class A and heading to Florida for the Winter? I hear there is a good fix-it guy down there who likes trains.
Troy, you’ve hit the nail on the head with this one!
Honestly this has hit fast and Terry all of a sudden is overwhelmed that it’s moving so quickly. 6/30 may get delayed to 8/1. She agreed finally it’s too big but we’ve owned this place since it was built in 2007 as a rental duplex at first then we used it for our corporate offices. Neither of us though are sentimental about material things. But this has been available whenever we needed it. We have the property to build so that’s not an issue for us. We will not permanently leave the area because the grandkids are here.
We will not travel in a motor home as we’d probably hate each other after a couple weeks.
The daughter's office/shop/stables/chicken coop was built as a place for Terry or me to live in eventually whenever we wanted. It has the elevator Terry needs now and I will unfortunately need sooner than later. I am not sure I want to live above the stable portion. It is though far enough away from the main house that we wouldn’t be in the way. We might go there for a while. The son now in Wimberley, Texas and sometimes Austin still has a condo he is so sort of trying to sell but he rents it out during F1 month and pays most of its bills for the year in that month. He has 3 Tiny Houses on the ranch in Wimberley and we have seen them. His house there should be ready in September is what the contractor says now, We could build 2 Tiny Houses quickly here and move into them while the house gets built. That though is iffy as we can’t convert them to a AirBnB thing in the Town of Verona. But nothing is finalized.
We have not really thought of a design yet for out on the property. Terry, the daughter and granddaughter are out there right now looking for a site to place the house. Other than we know it will have the high ceilings, open floor space, have a basement, zeroscape landscaping and be self sustaining anything is possible. Before and while it gets built we are going to play it by ear.
Maui and my brothers place is definitely out. Maui bored me and Terry’s sympathies now lie big time with the natives there since the Lahaina fires. She will not blend her bleeding heart liberal leanings and I’m not going to ask her.
I think in the end it will be all good
