I moved from the northeastern part of the country to Jacksonville, Florida, because of the weather, and i was sleepy of hot as well as cold temperatures dropping down into the disadvantage twenties.
I’d had enough of winters that lasted for more than half the year, bitter wind chill as well as feet of snow.
I couldn’t wait to trade in my wool coat, heavy boots as well as snow shovel for sandals, shorts as well as sunblock, then while I knew that summers in Jacksonville tend to be long, sizzling as well as humid, I was relieved that there was no worry over snow. I was totally unprepared for hurricane season. I spent far more than I should have on a apartment situated right along the banks of the St, but john’s River. I could barely afford the mortgage payments but just enjoyed the view of the water… There were consistently boats, jet skis as well as even dolphins going by; Unfortunately, when the storm hit, my apartment was flooded. There was several feet of dirty water inside the house. Plus the high winds caused a heavy branch to fall on the roof. There was disfigurement to ceilings, walls, floors as well as appliances. I had broken windows, mold growth as well as troubles with the foundation. Because there was no opportunity of the apartment passing local safety codes or a cabin inspection, I couldn’t list it for sale, however a potential shopper would not be able to secure financing, since I couldn’t afford to make the repairs, I needed to sell the house. With a bit of research, I found a local cash cabin buyer. The process was extremely quick, simple as well as stress-free. I supplied a bit of information via an online form as well as the cash shopper gave an offer within 24 hours.
