Option to Buy Lease – Lease Owned by The City of Ft. Worth?

June 20th, 2010



My spouse and I found a water front house on Lake Worth (Texas). The existing owner has paid $500 to transfer the option to our name.

1. If we are locked in a 25 year lease, can the City DEMAND us to PURCHASE the land before our Lease has ended?

2. We heard from the neighbors that the City is going to annex the neighborhood – are WE required to pay for costs of putting in water & sewer?

Thank you!
We have not closed – we only have a contract on the house w/an option (Waiting on house inspection). We are going to do the wise thing and consult and real estate attorney in the area.

Who should I call about my sinking yard?

June 17th, 2010



We live on a spring fed lake and part of the land by the water is sinking. It goes down a few inches every year and the wood sewall goes down with it. There are no underground pipes or other manmade structures there. The area that sinks is large, about 75 feet long along the water and about 40 feet wide. We have backfilled several times and it just keeps sinking. Why is this happening and who can I call to look at it?

I called a couple seawall installers, and they just want to install a new seawall in front of the old one, and we already did that a few years ago and it’s already underwater.

What does this dream mean?

June 12th, 2010



My mother and I were driving on a regular street, she was showing me a road that her and a friend found earlier. We turn left and the car stops because there is no driver. We start walking and it turns to night and there are lights on a mountain in the distance. The road is on a lake and there is an archway with a few lights. It feels like some sort of get together. Then all of a sudden the lights disappear like they were never there and a horrible feeling washes over the road as we almost enter a tunnel of dead trees with purple fog around them and a crow flies overhead. We start running back and the feeling goes away and day comes back and the car has a driver again but the crow still follows us and lands in front of us before we reach the car. It’s holding something, I can’t remember exactly it was either a blanket or a shoe. It drops the item then flies away and we pick it up and leave.

Lake Lanier ?

June 10th, 2010



My family and I are looking to move to Lake Lanier. It will be my Husband, Myself, and My Parents. We are looking to spend around $400,000-$500,000 on a piece of property for Lake Front. Do you know of any nice locations on the Lake where we would spend around this? We would like to live in a smaller town close to a big town. We would like a deed restricted community.

Thanks

Really strange dream o.o includes a mummy, a boy and. hairspray.o.o?

May 24th, 2010



I remember it went like this;

~There was a huge staircase-like-thing. The stairs were made of steel and they went in all different directions. I was walking along them with a group of people, but then I came to a fork in the road/stairs. The group went to the right, I went to the left. The stairs went the same way as the others the group went on, untill it turned to the right and went under the other set of stairs. I went to the corner where the stairs turned to the right and looked around. I saw a big lake and a cave-like place. The cave went in only a little bit and you could see the end of it (kind of like, a dent in the ground) and at the end there were two small doors, one to the left corner, one to the right corner of the cave…

Then I find myself in front of the lake which blocks off any ways of getting into the cave by walking. I’m with someone else I don’t know. I run towards the water and jump, trying to make it to the bit of land where the left door is. I make it, just, and so does the person who’s with me. I ask him ‘what do you think is behind the doors?’ he walks towards one and opens it, revealing a stone that shone gold and had some sort of Egyptian symbols on it. I go to the other one, on the right and open the door, same gold stone slab, but different Egyptian writing. The guy pushes the slab in on the left, and I copy him and push in the right. The both make a weird noise then the ground starts to shake. We both jump back to the ground we were on before (in front of the lake) and I look around.

Suddenly a mummy appears on the ground in front of us, but the weird thing was, it was only half a mummy! its legs were missing! (Thats what made it so creepy -shivers-) I look at it in fear then make a run for it too the left of it, same with the guy. The mummy starts running, on its hands dragging its body behind it, towards us! I jump back, so does the guy, and the mummy jumps at me, I quickly jump sideways, almost running into the guy and then run as fast as I could out of the place.

I suddenly have a piece of paper in my hands (where it came from, I dunno) it was really small, and purple with smaller black writing. It said something like ‘the way to get rid of the mummy is in the health section’ … it was talking about a supermarket ( yes, very, VERY strange o.o ) so I run into the nearest shop, with the guy close behind and run around the health section looking for whatever could get rid of the mummy (I remember looking at hair clips, Pokemon pins, and creams of all sorts) Then the mummy finds us and I randomly grab the closest thing…hairspray..and sprayed it on the mummy~

so yea..that was it o.o Very strange dream, any ideas/interpretations or any people who liked my dream xD (I have lots of really amusing ones!~)
