We Got An Accepted Offer On The Dodge House (But It Could Still Fall Apart)

Initial Conversation About the Dodge House Offer00:00

The sellers approached the couple directly before listing the property with a real estate agent. They stated they wanted to offer the Dodge house to the couple first because they want them to take it over. The couple owns the world famous Montello Theater.

Background and Accepted Offer00:32

The couple took over their small town movie theater 4 years ago. In recent videos they discussed considering the purchase of the Dodge house next door to the theater. They wrote an offer with a realtor in the previous video. A couple of minutes before this recording, they received a phone call confirming they have an accepted offer. Several contingencies still need to clear before the purchase is finalized.

Preemptive Projects and Plans for the Property01:03

The couple has begun work on projects for the Dodge house preemptively, acknowledging the deal could fall apart. One project is building a 2ft x 16ft long massive sign. The three main reasons for acquiring the historic property are:

• Conducting history tours
• Renting it out as an Airbnb
• Potentially hosting carnivore VIP meetups

Sign Painting Process04:09

The couple discusses their approach to painting the large sign. One partner wanted to use a sponge roller method while the other suggested spraying from directly above to minimize bleeding. They chose the spray method: spray lightly straight down to establish edges without excess paint that could bleed underneath. They note the sign is homemade so there is risk of error.
