The house blue print is straight out of Southern Living magazine. Neighborhood is the nicest in Batesville and the Mayor lives right across the lake.


Kinda seeing if there is any interest.  Priced super fair and a great investment property as well.

$380,000 in BTC.
 
(Address: 220 Lomond Drive Batesville, AR 72501 if you want to google map it)

31.5 million HUC?  ;D

Rofl Ikr... May have to wait for a few years on that one :D

it looks much better on google maps

You can see the lake much better, but it still doesn't show how thick this house truly is.

It has a three car garage ect.  I'll get better pics in the next day or two.

Edit:

Added the MLS link.

bay you have a beautiful home for sale there.  Being from NY always trips me out when I see things like this...here there would be a 2 in front of that price AND the quality of life still wouldn't measure up!

Good luck with the sale.

Thank you very much for the kind words.  Arkansas does have its perks with their real estate prices and the cost of living being so low.  This is really a beautiful area of Arkansas as well... not flat and shitty but very hilly/lots of rivers and about 1.5 hours from Little Rock and 3 hours from Memphis.

There are a number of New York's who own homes in Arkansas under property management.  This house for example rents for about $1700 a month.

take it off the market, hit me up in about 5 years when BTC reaches 40K a piece - I'll buy this then.

I don't know what sort of fee's there are in the US when buying a house.

But as an investment property, you would be looking at a 4-5% return each year, based on $1700 a month(not including any fees).
Most investors want around 9% where I'm from. But If I was looking to move to the USA, that sure looks like a nice place to start.

Good luck with the sale.

that is a nice home - cant believe how much cheaper it to live in ARK vs living in california

Ikr I am in here in SF :-/  

Hell of a shock going from $1700 for a HUGE house to $4500 for a 1bd/bath.  In Arkansas you couldn't even find a house to rent for >$3000.

That house is generally rented to whichever new doctor comes into the local hospital... so near the top of the market for the area.


I'm like a Mexican here in California... come out here to earn all my money and then I ship it home ;)

You can buy really really nice rentals for $50,000-$85,000.  

I bought my rental for $67,500.  Monthly payments are $450's, I rent it for $700 and pay the property manager 10%.  Plus property taxes which are like $450 a year and insurance.

Edit:

I had this loft above a Lawyer/CPA/stock broker across the street from a court house in Jonesboro that was HUGE and roof access. Used to have the friends over to smoke blunts n watch people go to court.  $1600 nicest loft in the city... rofl

Double Edit:

I know there is cheap land in California when you head to So Cal, but this land in Arkansas isn't shitty! (no offense) This a premo little town with nice rolling hills and very green.  Lots of rivers and lakes around within 2hours.  Also close to Missouri (2hr),  Tennessee (3hour),  the closest beach is like 6 or 7 hours away at Gulf Shores, AL and 6.5 hours from Dallas.

I love the house i wish i can afford it. Wishing you good luck in selling the house.

The house is beautiful and i love the landscape.Though i am based in Canada and can't relocate just yet but most definitely buzz you if i were to move to the United States.Best of luck,wish you have good offer for it.

Really nice house, I hope to buy a similar one sooner or later.

22 million HUC now :D hahaha

and thanks for the kind comments/bumps fellas!

Certainly is a beautiful house you have there.  If you haven't already you might want to consider listing your home on the site Bit Premiere, here is an example of a home in Panama selling for bitcoin's

https://www.bitpremier.com/5-real-estate/775-spacious-home-in-david-panama

Anyway, best of luck to you with your sale sir.

yep list it there, this is decent bro!

Blah I'll find a buyer here and keep the %'s :P

Edit:

Maybe list it there next year if need be!

I have to admit, when I hear/see "bay area" I think of the San Francisco Bay.  Are you located in Arkansas or is this just your second home or something?

Anyway, good luck with the sale.  I'm kinda thinking about trying to buy a house next year but I'm really looking at the opposite kinda place: a small small house on a big big lot.  My garden and chicken pen are like 3000sq feet.  I only need about 900sq feet for me to live in :)

I am living in San Fran, but from Arkansas originally.  This is one of the home that I grew up in.

Thanks for the luck and I'm sure it will get sold in due time! I'll list it on BP next year other wise, but I have confidence the price is great and I'll find a buyer!

Buy a home before BTC is worth $5 again! (jk lol, but rly)

It really does, with the lake so close on the right and it seems to be summer.

Switch the image for that one in the OP.  (tyvm)

It is truly a beautiful house in all aspects.

Small World...I just moved to Nashville about 3 weeks ago and listed 2 houses for sale in the same neighborhood... 1 of them is about 3 houses down the street and the other is about 1/2 mile away.... I to was born in Arkansas but lived most of my life in SoCal before returning briefly...cheers

Same neighborhood as this house?

Haha it is a small world :D tyvm

yep, right on the corner of Iona way and Lomond... I asked my youngest son if he knew who lived in your house and he knew the young boy Andersen (i think)

Bob Lemons old house or is that the Merrits old house or the house across the street from the Merrits?

Some doctor lives there at the moment, but the house is owned by my parents Max and Sandee Steiner.  If you are listing houses in the area I'm sure you know her, she owns Steiner Associate Realtor's.

I'm Steven Steiner.

not applicable

Your MLS listing link doesn't work, can you post the photos of the yard/lake/garage etc on the forums?

How clean is the lake water? I have not investigated Arkansas property yet, but $440,000 seems expensive for being in what most people would call "the middle of nowhere".

Ahh very cool!! Shit fire it is a small world.  

There was always really cool cars there.

Did you sell the house or are you renting it? (not to be overly nosey, but I'm happy to see a fellow Bitcoiner down the street... Batesville probably has the most Bitcoins out of any town in Arkansas :) hehe)



I'll call tomorrow and see what is going on with the link.  If it isn't listed on the MLS any more I'll do a write up.  

The lake water is ok.  I used to swim in it when I was a kid, but I think you might get some strange looks being a adult swimming in it :D.  There ponds are stocked with large mouth bass and a number of other fish. Water moccasins as well in this area + copper heads (snakes.)

You get a lot of house for $440,000 $425,000 and it is in the nicest neighborhood in Batesville.  Batesville is a "hub" for the middle of no where.  Roughly 1 hour and 15 minutes from Little Rock and 2.5 hours away from Memphis.

Not to burst your bubble, but for everyone, I just checked and the house is off the market. The owners have no intention to sell this house. Even if they do, it's only worth $350K US Dollars.

lol

The house is very much on the market, but the MLS link in the OP is fucked up atm.

1.  Go to:

2.  Then search by the MLS #:

3.  Click "View Results"

Edit:

OP updated.

Look, I don't know what you're pulling here but if ANYONE here just googles the address and looks up Zillow.com or Homes.com it will plainly show that the home IS NOT ON THE MARKET.
I even took a step last night to confirm with local realtors that this home is not for sale. Don't scam.

Fucking trolls! yes it is still on the market a quick google search shows us

Can't live with them, can't live without them.  ;D


 If you follow the steps above your post and the link takes you to the listing brokers website.  Then if you google the MLS # I provided you it will pop up.

I'm sure you confirmed it  ::).   I have "close relationship" with the owners of the house and the broker.

Fraud

When someone with 14 status (noob account) tells me i'm a troll, well then I'm going to prove them wrong.
http://www.zillow.com/homedetails/220-Lomond-Dr-Batesville-AR/90838963_zpid/

Also, contacting local realtor again and will report this post.

Um... why are you calling me a fraud?  Because Zillow isn't correct on their price estimate?

Give the realtor a call if you'd like or send her a e-mail asking.   ::)  

Don't you think if I was going to try commit fraud I would post a picture of a place in a far off country that no one could verify was mine and not in fucking Arkansas of all places  :D :P.  

If you aren't trolling please follow these instructions:

This is very interesting since I own a house in Arkansas and I'm looking to possibly sell it for BTC also. Although the house that I'm selling is nowhere near the range that that house is going for, I still find it interesting that it's a small world ;D

Well fucking A.

One person 3 houses up the road and another one with property in Arkansas.... jesus!

Do you mind if I ask where you have property in Arkansas?  

We have houses/businesses in Little Rock, Jonesboro and Batesville.

One of which was in the news as far as Bitcoin goes!

For real, here are the restoration pics. Like I said, it is SUPER far away from what your house is currently. I could only dream of owning a house like that some day.

Currently living in it and trying to sell it. Originally was in the family and had to buy it through a delinquent tax auction because of a bunch of family problems (grandma who owned it was in the nursing home with alzheimers). Only paid 720 for the house and the 1/2 acre land it sits on. Put about 15k into it and trying to sell it now ;D. I think I made a good investment.

https://drive.google.com/folderview?id=0B4ySexzTrTnMeXFENEh5THM3MTA&usp=sharing  (uploading some old videos of the restoration now actually)

It's in Dardanelle. It's a small house ~520 sq foot. It's great for me and my wife currently. We have no kids atm, one in the oven though :D :D :D :D!!! It's been in my family for a very long time, my dad was raised in it from birth which is why I didn't want to rebuild it entirely or add on. I wanted to keep the originality of it with it's location and size. I did remove a nearly all of the original walls and change the floor plan from a 2 bed room to a 1 bed room with a larger kitchen, bathroom, and walk in closet.

Such a good restoration job!! I really love the tub.  Absolutely adorable :D

I would venture say that will probably be a great investment for y'all.

Anyways, I don't want to digress from your house sale or steal the thread. Good luck!

Fellow Arkansans are always welcome on any of my threads + it is good publicity for yours as well if someone is looking for a smaller places (3700+ sq feet is kind of ridiculous.)

 
Congrats on the future lil poop maker!

Do you know what year it was built originally?  Might need to make sure you don't have a metric fuck ton of lead in there prior to the little one  ;D

It was built originally in 1963. We stripped everything out. -EVERYTHING-. The only original pieces of this house that are still on is the outer walls, floor joists, and the trusses. All insulation, plumbing, wiring and drywall were completely redone. The house isn't on a foundation either. It's on blocks. I know that sounds redneck as hell, but it's rock solid with no termite damage. "Welcome to Arkansas" I say when people look at the house with a odd look on their face.

It's super peaceful being 7 miles out of town. Not a single city light to dim the stars at night. The dust bands are bright out here. Lots of private owned land for hunting also ;)

All a true redneck needs to hunt is a 22 rifle and a soda bottle. :D  Who needs permission or tags! (only joking)

Ya man... fuck termites, chiggers and ticks.

Did you used to go to Schwagstock or do you currently ever go to Wakarusa?

(random ass question lol but waka is the first thing I think of when I think of that area of Arkansas)

Nah, the old rem 770 270 is my choice to hunt with, although I'm more of a fan of bow hunting for the actual "sport" of hunting, along with filling the deep freezer :D.

Soon I will be making a thread on my house only because of viewing this thread and having this discussion. I've thought about it for a long while, but now I feel a little bit of incentive :D, thanks.


Nope, never even heard of the first one. The 2nd one, I've wanted to go a few times.

Dude, now is the time.  I hope you get it listed, it sells, Bitcoin hits $40,000 a coin and you buy this Lomond house!

If you ever want to schedule to come look at it please just let me know.  It might be a pleasant day trip for you and the wife.  Plus it will be easier for you to earn it if you actually see it in real life, know that is what you want and then imagine earning it. 

I'm sure it would be a pleasant trip, but there's absolutely no way I would be able to afford anything like that anytime soon. I like my job, but my job doesn't like me that much :D. Working with a 75k a year household income. Plenty enough to keep my happy and pay for my toys for both my wife and I. Tell ya what, if my house sold for 150 btc (if it's even worth that), and btc goes to 40k, I'll buy yours :D.

There is one way ^ and I'm sure there is about 10 more that you could use to earn this place by Christmas. :D

Well if you sell your house and we get to $4000 per BTC feel free to hit me up!!

Still up. 

Will list on premier next year!

i wish i had that much bitcoin, so I can buy that house.  :P that house looks very simple and nice.

Still for sale :)
