While driving around this past weekend in Lubbock, looking for estate sales, my wife pointed this house to me. http://www.westmarkrealtors.com/westmark/properties/residentialDetailnew.asp?MLS=9949668 It sickens me to know that with all the Dolly Mack houses here, that no one has taken an interest in restoring them (much like the community in OK). When I saw this house I knew it was the house. It's my dream house, even though I wasn't expecting a pool. I can see us raising a family here. But there is a problem, I can't afford it. I can't afford it to the fact that I am in a debt managment program and I have to scrounge for extra cash to help pay the mortgage on our current house (45 miles east of Lubbock, mission style house). I can't afford it to the fact that every graphic place I have have applied for turns their nose up at me. I don't even know how to start to freelance my work, but I fear the house will be gone before that happens. My current house is ok, it's just not what I dreamt that my wife and I would spend the rest of our lives in. The house also would suit a retired couple. This house (linked above) is almost to the "T" in design of house I grew up in. I wish there was a way I could win some money or something to snag this house before someone gets it, and ruins it's luster. Any suggestions?
