You know, the entire affair was so screwed up, I can't even recall details.

My gf and her ex bought it as a presale. They broke up. We started dating. I inherit a presale.

So I wasn't there to go over the contract during signing as that would be awkward.

So I get up to speed on past events, and then the mortgage almost falls through on the last minute because they didn't know she was self-employed and so we go out there, and back, out and back.

So to do the final inspection on this goddamned little townhouse from hell was not a treat. I wasn't happy with the paint at all. You could see bad repairs and touchups and the tile situation was even worse.

The best part is, I'm a contractor so I know what to look for and paint is my pet peeve. I hate shitty paint.
