lewiston: Part 2 of my flipping blog series
- 08/23/08 03:47 PM
Okay, When we last left I was excited about my new flip house..actually, my first flip house. It's been almost a month since the purchase and I have not even started working on the place because the previous owner is refusing to vacate. She feels she still has a claim to the home, and has a right of redemption. Here is how it works in Idaho: If a home is sold at a trustees sale, like the one I purchased every lien holder is notified of the sale far in advance and has an opportunity to bid on the property.

- 01/25/07 03:10 AM
Last summer I relocated from Lewiston, Idaho to a quaint little town calledAsotin, Washington. Asotin is just across the snake river from Lewiston,so it wasn't like I moved far away.

I am licensedto sell real estate in both states. Living here, a Realtor almost hasto have a license in both states-even though I know successful Realtors that do not have both.

- 11/12/06 02:45 PM
The HELLS CANYON area was once homet to the NEZ PERCE and the SHOSHONE tribes. There is still evidence today of the people of long ago all along the rivers edge. Today boaters can explore the canyon's many archaeological sites and old homesteads.

There are many stories of how Hells Canyon. It is … (9 comments)
