[Today’s run: 3.4 miles]
I was just checking out the HUD houses on the hudhomestore.com website.
I usually check out what is available in our area of Mississippi, Colorado, Iowa, sometimes up in Wyoming and Montana or down in New Mexico.
I was noticing that the number of homes for sale in Iowa seems to be much increased in the last few months. It probably takes most of a year for a house to be foreclosed on and eventually appear on their sale site. I don’t remember an economic crunch in Iowa, but maybe I missed it.
I saw a nice place in the country near Van Meter that looked like it had a couple of acres and only one neighboring house. The other sides were cow pasture. That’s kind of a surprise too, since the stuff in Dallas County has been growing so fast. Maybe the place used to be a meth lab or something.
