Hey, I like those flat-roofed styles.

Jeeze, look at the build price. I'll bet Swingy couldn't do one for that
today.


I'll bet he wouldn't get out of bed for that paltry sum

Just think of that price on a thirty year fixed note, especially after
the inflationary '70's. (providing you managed to still have a job)


I always think of mortgages as doubling the cost of the house, so
that's about $40k, or $111.11 a month. That's easily doable today by
most people, eh? snicker
