This is darling and still looks brand new! Good luck!
Thanks, Lynnette!
What a cute place! Great price too! I am sure it will sell fast.
Did I miss the price? Looks great!
Yes! Asking price is $35k. I put it at the bottom so I think it was easy to miss 😀
Isn’t 35,000 alittle high for that? Haven’t we seen some brand new houses for that price occasionally?
After seeing the 70-something thousand McTiny in this newsletter it puts this house to shame. Ugh!
Tried to e- mail Cathy but it said address was invalid….
?? How do I contact her or have her contact me?
Hi Helen, so sorry if you had an issue with my email. I will check that out. My address is: netwitt1@yahoo.com. That is a number 1 after netwitt, not an i. I look forward to hearing from you.

Hi again, if you go to the end of the YouTube video, my address is there, as well. Cathy
