New Vegas party house! (since everybody's talking RE)
 

Just got the title switched to my name this morning, a sweet SWEET pad in Spanish Trails section of Vegas!

A little indoor lap pool action:

Looking forward to hosting some webmasters come convention time ;) Send your traffic to darkcavern.com or buy a package from extremefeeds.com and reserve your spot now!! :winkwink:

damn that looks nice from the outside. You got any pics from the inside?

yeah, it's a pain in the ass to get them off the Adobe doc and onto a page but lemme see what I got...

Nice pad man :thumbsup

Looks beautiful. I'm coming...

Looks nice. Renting it out for shoots? :pimp

As a faithful DC reseller you are more than welcome, your days of paying hotel bills are over my friend ;)

As for shoots, I might!

I'm looking thru the adobe docs, I have one with comps and one for the inspection report and neither one of them really have good pix of the place. Basically it's about 5k sq ft on a 16k lot, bigass hot tub in back, lap pool inside, spiral staircase in back leading to the back deck, solarium right off the bedroom... I never thought I would even own a house, now I have one in Vegas and one in LA.

Porn has been berry berry good to me!

You aren't selling the place you're at right now, are you? You just bought it last summer!

Nope I'm going to keep it and rent it out. I haven't decided whether I'm going to retire to LA, northern Cali or just go back to my Indiana hometown and lord it over the people I grew up with yet so I'm keeping my options open ;)

This is the foyer, doors on left open to pool:

This is a better pic of the curb appeal:

The house directly across the street is 20k sq ft, looks like a mansion out of Citizen Kane. I'm going to be neighbors with Andre Agassi ;)

Great house, Dig.

Sure beats the Valley house. However, the weather in Las Vegas sucks. I prefer Indiana weather over the desert. Invest in a super house on the beach. :thumbsup

The valley house was lame, it was nice sitting on a quarter acre of grassland right in the middle of porn valley though

hehe, ridiculous real estate markets!

Did I mention I'm neighbors with Andre Agassi?

Also another neighbor is Mike Gallardo, even more impressive for those in the know around LV :pimp

You definitely have come a long way. It's good to see one of the good guys get ahead. Where were you born in Indiana? It will feel good going back home a winner. Hoosiers are impressed by cars. Drive a new sportscar back to your HS or College Reunion and play the *stud!*

My attorney has a house in your neighborhood.

Your electric bill for your swamp cooler and your A/C will shock you.

Terre Haute Indiana, aka Bumfuck Egypt lol

very nice congrats

not to sound arrogant, although it will, but if you have to worry about the electric bill that's not the right neighborhood to be in :1orglaugh

the only thing that can get me now is a bad turn in the porn biz, knock on wood that doesn't happen.

nice part of town dig(grew up near there)

Very true about the A/C bill, but even if I am loaded, I don't want to spend over $3,000 a month for air conditioning. At the beach I never use heat or A/C. It stunned me that big houses in the desert eat up that much power.

My best friend went to Indiana University in Terre Haute. I visited her for many wild parties. It's not too bad of a place. Home is home. I have a warm spot in my heart for Indiana. My uncle was just inducted into the Indiana Basketball Hall of Fame in March where he will reign along with Larry Bird, Bobby Knight, and some greats. Once a basketball loving Hoosier, it kinda stays with you.

damm congrats B, very nice casa!!!


Vegas seems like an optimum place to have a party palace...
and I'm almost certain the air is cleaner than The Valley


:thumbsup :thumbsup

nice pad man, im right off of DI and Buffalo few blocks from ya

The air is very very dry it seems to me.. less allergies if you have that problem than LA but I'm gonna need a humidifier in every room until I get used to it.

looks really nice.. how much?

1.125m

1m seems to be the magic point as far as the housing market, spend any less and you get a lot less house. Spend a little more and the sky is the limit, you're living like a king.

Dig, it isn't the dryness that gets to you. It is the junk in the air. Sand and dust particles blow in the wind and you feel like you have allergies when you don't. Nothing beats fresh air, and Las Vegas has crappy air. Las Vegas is good for lizards and black widow spiders. If you are there for one or two days and then get the hell out, it can be fun. Longer than two days and you will get sick.

or a good reason to install a few waterfall/type/decorations around the house :-)

yeah lots of plants, lots of running water :)

it's like that when you're staying in a hotel, not so bad when you actually live there.

you have very good taste...

decorating sucks, takes forever w/ big houses :(

nice pad but I got to have ocean :)

vegas is too hot in the summer..

congrats on a nice purchase.

I failed in vegas.. was going to buy a house there 2 years ago since my company is there and did not pull the trigger. Been kicking myself for that. was gonna buy one of those turnberry place tower apts for like 800K bah blew it

oooh man.. that was a very good time to buy from what I hear.

I'm keeping the LA pad so hopefully I can get my ocean breeze fix every now and then ;)

Will probably have a pro do it before I ever move in.

Wallst, thank you! Drove my agent nuts, I made her show me about 500 houses before I found one I really liked. She had just about given up on me ;P

I have lived in Las Vegas. My body never accepted the crap in the air. Where do you think the performers get *desert throat?* Sand storms are terrible. I'm just not a heat loving dry air fan. I prefer Northern California with damp fog and dew on the grass. I think Persian Kitty has the right location. Cooler temps and some moisture. Human beings were not meant to live in desert conditions with closed doors and A/C units buzzing 24/7 and ugly humidiers stationed all over the place.

But you have a very large house, and you will figure out how to make it comfortable. If it gets too dry for you, you can always jump into your lap pool and breathe in some water.

Dig, you will not have to search for volunteers to help you decorate such a beautiful house. It looks good enough that you won't have to clutter it up with a lot of furniture. You can select choice pieces and the lines of the house will draw your eye.

or rent out the Vegas house and run back to LA :1orglaugh

Where'd you live in indiana?

Great setup!

My friend recently bought a house in Las Vegas, The previous owner was a lounge singer and had all the windows covered with heavy dark drapes because he slept during the day. She loves heat and light, so she tore down all the drapes and opened up the place. So far, she loves living there. The only concern she has is that she loves the sun, and she doesn't want her skin to get old and dry looking from her tanning.

Do you remember Aly MacGraw who was in "Love Story" and married to Steve McQueen? I ran into her last week and she looked so damn old. She got way too much sun over the years. It aged her.

So Dig, Mr. Las Vegas.....take it easy with the sun, and enjoy the hell out of your new home.

Kard, Terre Haute

Confucy I remember her, I watched that movie when I was a little kid and cried my eyes out lol

Thanks Joe, you're welcome anytime!

Is it OK if I brring some girls?

I dont know what microchick is ranting about, I live here and its great. Its only really hot for about 2 months (july and august) June is warm and so is september, but the rest of the year is awesome.

One thing you may want to do is first get solar screens on your windows, then get your east and west facing windows tinted. I did that last year and it cut my electric bill from $550 a month to under $200

what a silly question hehehe

if you don't bring em, I'll have some shipped in for you my friend ;)

looks damn good Dig and Spanish Trails is a great neighborhood....had you been out there 2 years ago, you could have been neighbors with Mike Tyson too ;-)

yeah .. looks nice !:)

MrPheer, what do you consider to be a hot temp? You must be a Scorpio. Why do so many porn webmasters get sick when they go to LV? Bad air! Windows closed in hotels and bad air circulating throughout the rooms. Smokers everywhere... It is different in your own home, but you still have to deal with the dryness, the heat, and the blowing sand.

When you are a beach person and you move to LV, it is a drastic change.

I would like to see all of the beach people move to the desert. Maybe then I could afford to buy something on the water.

its fucking hot as fuck..i looked there before and the association dues were pretty high at the time..i guess i should have bought..but i cant complain with what i bought..i think anyone buying anything on the left side of the US has done pretty well..i cant complain about buying in coastal cali :)

I consider hot to be 110+
I'm not a scorpio, and i dont see what difference that would make anyway. I moved here from Texas and the only difference in the climate is less humidity. The heat here is way more bearable than it was in Texas when it would be 105 degrees and 90% humidity.

As for everybody getting sick at conventions, its probably the same reason most soldiers get sick in basic training. You get a bunch of guys from all over the country converging on one place, wearing down thier immune systems from sleep deprivation or in the case of webmasters, poor diets, smoking, drugs, alcohol.. and how would you expect them not to get sick? If the air was the problem, everyone here would be sick all the time and thats simply not how it is.

I spend a great deal of time in the summer outdoors, and as long as you stay hydrated its not much of a problem.
