November 24, 2006 ALLIGATOR WRESTLING in a Louisiana Swamp (for reals!)

THE REAL (ESTATE) STORY
By Larry Underhill

THE ALLIGATOR TAIL (Whoops! I mean TALE) I promised last week is further down the page, but first:

THANKSGIVING. In this jolly season, having heard of folks thanking each other, thanking their lucky stars, or just “being thankful” to no one in particular, I’d like to go on record as thanking the One Who rescued me from myself 35 years ago: Jesus Christ. Every breath I take is a gift from Him.

NEW PRICE! 9225 Little Creek Circle in North Stockton was good value before, but NOW: $409,950 for 2064 square feet of two-story charm on a secluded circle! Such a deal. Don’t wait on this one…

NEW LISTING! 1800 Orchis Court is 2134 square feet of single-story semi-custom home on a Westside Lodi cul-de-sac. At $528,950, it’s a real opportunity for the right Buyer! Oversized bedrooms! Vaulted ceilings! $2500 credit so you can choose your own new kitchen floor covering, dishwasher, and microwave! Large corner lot. Come and see!

JUST LISTED in much-loved “Old Lodi” area! 202 North Crescent (corner of Crescent and Locust) is a unique combination of circa-1947 charm and gorgeous modern upgrades. Gourmet kitchen with abundance of pullouts (even in the island!). Kitchen appliances have matching brushed-metal look throughout, including the refrigerator! LOFT! Cozy back yard with courtyard! Dual-pane vinyl-clad windows! Hardwood flooring! The list goes on and on. Call me for a private showing! $475,000.

LET ME TELL YOU about 1706 South Church Street. Newer Central Heat and Air! Near-new dual-pane white vinyl-clad windows! Large fenced back yard! Approx. four-year-old composition roof! New price: $280,000. Don’t snooze…

1818 Mimosa Drive, at $399,950 for almost 1800 square feet of two-story charm, is one of Lodi’s best values. Near-new 50-year composition ROOF! Upgraded window treatments! More! Nothing left to do here. This is a clean, sharp home. These folks want to MOVE! Call me for a private showing.

SPEAKING OF MOTIVATED SELLERS, the Sellers at 515 Sandpiper Circle want to get this 1412-square-foot single-story home SOLD. Recently reduced to $339,950,, this home has much to offer. These Sellers will consider offers!

THE ALLIGATOR’S ARMOR was rough to the touch as I struggled to avoid his long bony snout. He was one strong brute! I wrestled to keep him under control. I knew that he wanted to force me into the murky waters of the Louisiana bayou where he’d commence his death roll. Soon I’d be just another news item: “California Realtor Killed By Alligator In Southern Louisiana Swamp”. If he’d been any bigger than 16 inches long, I would have been a goner. Now YOU tell one!

Have a great week! See you next Sat.
