4.5 is serious money to anybody but the potential is enormous


Part of the talk with the accountant was to nail down a price the family would be comfortable with. After some thought about unrecognized assets and liabilities the price was adjusted accordingly.

This was a hard decision for the Johnson family because it has been a part of their whole lives and they had turned down many much higher offers in the past. However the market is what the market will bear.

The Craigslist ad reflects the new price and also includes acreage, houses, an R.V. park as it would be more convenient for the family to sell the package.

Lots of possibilities on the table so don't think inside the box here. Let your imagination wander about the possibilities of how the entire compound could be utilized by new investors.

He told me to tell everyone that the weather is wonderful, the strip is in good shape, the fishing is unbelievable, and all is well in "Mulege Land"

Some one else please talk to Don, in person. If Jack is correct there should be some people dragged through the Mulege Mud! But there must be some facts put forth before anyone goes off half c-cked.:?:
I don't know Jack but I know that the fishing nor the sticky weather is "wonderful"

I've noticed that scarves and pizza seem to be a recurring theme around Mulege...just saying...I'm sure there is a great story lurking somewhere that explains it all...

Yep....short version from my view:

Last winter Mulege Nomads were raving about a local new pizza joint (since closed, unfortunately). One commented about the pleasure of "scarffing down the pie"....and another (who appears to have been living in a cave w/no internet or tweeting capabilities....or something) asked about "scarffing"....apparently confusing it with "scarves".

Good humour ensued and the weekly pizza fests had pizza-nomads playing with the idea of wearing a "scarf" to the "pizza scarffing".

Something like that....kind of a play on words thing.

Versions of the story may vary.....

I took advantage of this epicurian festivity by saying that I would be passing through town and would like to meet some Nomads through such a gustatory get-together. I had a chance to meet a half-dozen or so Nomads, eat some pizza, and enjoy myself.

However, I apparently disappointed some.....Pescador, for instance, said he was expecting me to be a guy in dreadlocks, but wouldn't expand on his expectation.....:?::?: I was introduced to Chuckie in passing as he drove up for a brief chat with the others (as my recollection goes....but the names don't always connect with faces in my brain until used a few times....).

Sadly, I made the mistake later to describe the pizza as "pedestrian".....and I think that is when some Mulege Nomads put a bounty on my head for such a breach of etiquette.


Well, I have had time to get over it....and maybe a few others have too.....we will see when we convene for beers at the Serenidad in January to swap stories about the pleasures of putting a BMW between our legs for hours of pleasure on end :lol:

Hell, we might get along so well we might decide to buy the place, quell any and all false rumours about the mythical flood plain risks that worry local real estate agents/house-sellers (well at least one of them who has not yet darkened this thread with his bulky presence :biggrin: ).

If we do, the drinks are on the house for ALL Nomads for the first year commencing from completion of the sale. However, if we end up in a fist fight (or just swishing our scarves at one another) due to characteralogical differences, gastric reflux irritation, or just being born under a bad sign.....it is unlikely the sale will go through.....and no free drinks for you :(


Questions? :saint::biggrin: :coolup:

Don is old. I've gotten the impression, whether it's just the money, or whatever, that Don's family is not emotionally invested in the place. The hotel is old and in need of a huge amount of restoration. With the exception of the lobby area, virtually everything has gone to seed. It's a great property, but it needs MAJOR help.

An investor with deep pockets might be able to salvage this as Don's legacy.

YMMV

Sighhhh


I guess everybody else has it figured out.

They all must have spent hours with Don, Nancy, and the accountant like I did discussing the details of the sale and the desires of the owners. Then they probably spent another hour or two taking pictures with Don and putting it all up on the interweb and fielding calls from interested parties. Not to mention the time invested in meetings with the Ejido to uncover the requirements for a smooth transfer.

If there are any seriously interested parties please contact me though the Craigslist ad.

If Don has changed his mind in the last five minutes it is news to me. Thanks Alacran.

Have a pleasant summer,

Saludos,

Definition of an expert.

Lets break it down, we all know what an EX is!!! A has been, the last one, the one that once was, ect. Now a spert, that is what happens what a faucet fails, or a hose has to much air.

So an Ex spert is nothing more than a has been pulse of water!:no::no::o:o:lol::lol:

I find this all too strange.
I know Alacran and he knows Don personally as a former resident of the trailer park before he built across the river.

If Don says no dice to him - well then.... ????????????

Not that strange really.

The family changed it's mind several times as to the price and what they were interested in selling. It started with just the hotel and ended up as a larger offering.

They finally decided it would be in their best interests to try and sell the entire package which includes more acreage, houses, and an RV park. The most recent advertisement reflects their desires.

I would happy to bring them a qualified buyer and I have had calls asking for details but no serious offers on the larger deal.

Thanks for keeping this on top of the board.
