    The Home Ownership Thread

    When we refi'd in Fall '12, our appraisal came back lower than the appraisal/purchase price in Summer of '09. I was furious since houses in our area were being sold for 15%-20% more than I paid. Turns out he completely overlooked any new construction sale and used comps that were utter crap...

    In Spokane, they are starting new "calming" projects around town whereby they narrow a 4-lane road down to a 2-lane road with bike lanes. Most people are not happy about this.

    Any thoughts on what might happen to bonds once the fed raises rates this summer? I've got a few bucks in a Vanguard bond fund (VFIDX) that I was treating as a savings account, but I'm a little worried about what might happen if rates go up.

    Something to do with the Costco deal maybe? Although, seems like that boat sailed in Oct/Nov when it went from ~$50 to $60+

    Literally the same situation as myself. Couldn't have picked a better time

    The Home Ownership Thread

    Isn't it rather expensive to do multipl refi's so close together? We refi'd in 2013 from 5.125 down to 3.5 and it was a pain ***********. There were some fees and it was a lot of wasted time getting paperwork to the new lender.

    The Home Ownership Thread

    My wife and I actually agree on it's "fakeness" but we aren't going to spend upwards of $15k on real or engineered hardwood in a house that we likely aren't going to retire in. Laminate seemed like a good middle of the road choice between carpet and hardwood. Still looking, and thanks for all...

    I also believe the Pathfinder, prior to 2013, was body-on-frame based on the underpinnings of their Frontier truck.

    Interesting ideas. We're going to take a look at a few more options next week. The picture I posted is our current leader at the moment, but not necessarily a done deal.

    The Home Ownership Thread

    Hmmmmmm, maybe. I've seen that stuff used in older homes near city centers and I think it looks great, but I just don't know if I could pull it off in this neighborhood. Here's is what we've been looking at, sorta looks different than what I've seen in a lot of homes:

    The Home Ownership Thread

    Anyone have laminate flooring in their house? We really need to rip out the six year old carpet (builder grade stuff that came with the house) as well as some vinyl in the kitchen and replace it all. It wouldn't be worth it to use real or engineering hardwood, as I'd probably never recoup the...

    This is the first year I've run dedicated winters and holy crap do they make a difference. We put studless Blizzaks on our SUV and the difference is incredible. Had snow and ice this morning and I literally couldn't break it loose, never bothered with putting it in 4WD.

    according to this article from Jalopnik, the only way to disable the faux-engine sound is to pull the fuse.

    Ford pumps fake V8 sound into the new ecoboost Mustang. Not an electric rig, obviously, but same principle.

    Boardwalk Empire

    I'm willing to let a lot slide given that the writers/producers were given 8 episodes to wrap up an entire series that was probably assumed to have at least 3 more seasons coming. Loved this show, however they really messed up by killing Jimmy Darmody in season 2. It was never the same...

    check out the articles on jalopnik about a guy that bought a 5 year old range rover from carmax and already had more $$$ in repairs covered by the warranty than it cost (and he's only 2 years into it).

    My locale leaves me little choice; Toyota, Ford, Chevy, or Jeep/Chrysler. I'd be interested in the Audi Q5, but I'm not driving 100+ miles every time I need service.
