So I put my ad up on Craigslist finally, offering our Albuquerque house up for sale. On the one hand, it's a manufactured house for which I'm behind on tax payments and have to evict a current non-paying tenant. On the other hand, it's 1800 sq. ft., includes appliances, can be moved but doesn't have to be, and I'm asking under $40K for it. It's a good house... the only reason we got a manufactured house at all is that it's the only one we found that didn't creak and seem unsound when my ex (6'5", 280 lbs at the time) walked around in it.

Given current housing prices in that town, that's a bargain no matter what. I just can't keep it any more. We were supposed to sell it as part of the divorce settlement, and it's taken me this long to overcome inertia and just do it. Let's hope it sells.

Of course, if anybody reading this here is interested in a house like that in Albuquerque, let me know. :)

Wow.

For $40K, I'm sorely tempted to relocate to Albuquerque!

I wish I could help you out with that, but New Mexico is, like, fifth on my list of places to move to.

I totally understand, believe me.

Good luck, may you get a buyer that gives you no issues!

Dear God, for $40K, I'm very tempted. Except I have no job in New Mexico and I'm just starting a program here at the UW...

New Mexico was actually my second choice to move to after Seattle.

Is this house just the house and not the land? Was it meant to be here? Were you meant to be there? Am I asking too many annoying questions?

It is just the house. Site fee for the land is $200/month and the house can be moved, should you acquire other land for it.

Was the house meant to be here? Um... not with the funds I have. :) However, if you really wanted it here, I'm sure something could be done.

Was I meant to be there? For a few years, I think so. Both my sons were born during my time in Albuquerque. I will not be moving back again, though. I've found my life. So no, I am not meant to be there now.

Are these the answers you were looking for?
