    Overview

    I own a house worth about $250,000 according to various real estate websites, but with a huge housing shortage in this area, I could get much more. I own my house free and clear and I paid cash for my house so there's never been a mortgage. I'm in very bad health and I don't know how long I'll live. If I could find a person who will pay me a certain amount of money every month for living expenses until I die, you can own my house when I die. You'll be the owner of my house free and clear when I die. It will all be legally binding. All the legal work has been done and I have all the necessary documents. This area is a seller's market and there's especially a huge shortage of homes for sale in this price range and under and the value of my house will only appreciate. The temporarily higher interest rates that currently exist have not really affected the value of my house and the temporarily higher mortgage rates will have no effect on this deal because of the way this deal is structured. This is a great investment opportunity for a savvy real estate investor or potential home owner where you'll get a huge rate of return on your investment dollar. What I'm proposing will get you a much greater rate of return than you'd ever get in the stock market. I am 75 years old. Listed below is a conservative estimate of 2% appreciation per year of what my house will be worth in 5, 10, 15 or 20 years. If you've been looking to buy a house, you know that real estate prices have remained relatively stable all over this area even with temporarily higher mortgage rates because of the massive amount of people who yearly move to this area and the fact that home builders avoid building new homes that are worth $250,000 and under because home builders can't make money on them so finding a house for sale in this price range is particularly difficult. The number on the left is what my house would be worth if there wasn't a major housing shortage all over this area. The number on the right is what I can get and the yearly appreciation because of the huge housing shortage all over this area. VALUE OF THE HOUSE TODAY $250,000-$300,000 VALUE OF THE HOUSE IF I DIE IN 5 YEARS CONSIDERING 2% APPRECIATION PER YEAR $276,269-$331,224 VALUE OF THE HOUSE IF I DIE IN 10 YEARS CONSIDERING 2% APPRECIATION PER YEAR $305,300-$365,798 VALUE OF THE HOUSE IF I DIE IN 15 YEARS CONSIDERING 2% APPRECIATION PER YEAR $337,380-$403,760 VALUE OF THE HOUSE IF I DIE IN 20 YEARS CONSIDERING 2% APPRECIATION PER YEAR $372,832-$445,784 What could you do with a 400 square foot, with 12 foot high walls, custom built, concrete block building with sand in the blocks making the building 100% sound proof? A band could practice in the building at 3 A. M. and play their instruments at any volume level they wanted and bother no one. What could you do with state of the art, extra heavy duty wiring that will take up to 15,000 watts worth of electronic equipment without overloading the circuits. The answer is that you could do many things with the building such as it would make a great home office, a great game room/man cave (there's plenty of room for a pool or ping pong table and a large screen tv) or it could even be two separate bedrooms. The building has two separate rooms in it. The building also has its own central air conditioning and heating system. Between the 1051 square footage of the house and the 400 square footage of the separate concrete block building, there is a total of 1451 square footage of living space.
