It's a busy week in Logan - the new Subway restaurant opened yesterday, and a couple of the partners had breakfast sandwiches. Great stuff. The kids are back in school - there's a football game here on Friday night, our volleyball girls are traveling this afternoon, and the 4-H and FFA students are gearing up for showing their animals at the State Fair next week.
People tend to think that Logan, pop.1100, is a sleepy little place during the week, but there's always something going on. It's a small town, but we're all involved in making things work. If you have the resources, Logan is a great place to live permanently. Great school system (the only school in the County that made AYP throughout the system), perfect weather (except for those weeks in spring when the wind makes your hair stand on end, and that doesn't last very long) and friendly people (except for a couple of old soreheads, and we just refuse to pay attention to that). And it rained again last night - we had .7 inches on Monday night, and maybe .3 of an inch last night. Looking for more through Saturday, but it still promises to be a nice Labor Day weekend on the lake.
People are always stopping me and asking me about amazing deals. "What's a steal this week?" Now that we've been discovered by the Albuquerque and Denver crowd, property is in higher demand and the steals have mostly disappeared. But we have a couple of houses that you'd hate to let slip by-100 Cactus for sure, which is a 2007 18' Solitaire in immaculate condition and full of new furniture. Metal deck, large corner lot, and this house started off at $139,000. Our seller is crazy motivated - he's lowered the price to $114,900, which is just about what it would cost you to buy the lot, put in a septic system and electric and water, buy the home, build the deck and then furnish. But the best part about this house is that it's ready for you to move in tomorrow. Great view of the lake - I keep wondering who will be the lucky person who snatches this one up.
And we have a house that sits right next to the Minnow Ranch - two bedroom, two bath on corner lot - standard description, but now the price has been lowered to $59,900, and this seller is also really motivated. It's zoned commercial or residential and has a nice new privacy fence on the north and east sides - now that the new sewer system is coming in, this would be a great location for eventually putting in some multi-family duplexes or even a small apt/weekend rental complex. The lot alone is almost worth the asking price.
