Property for Sale or Rent
Raw Learning is looking for a new space on the South side of Staunton. Our lease at our current location can continue until June 18th, 2010. We believe they will let us out of our obligation with 30 days notice.
To Rent: We can spend about $800 per month and are willing to consider just about anything that has a safe place for the kids to play outside.
To Purchase: We are looking for 5-10 acres of land, with or without a structure of some sort. We are able to spend about $10,000 per acre, without a structure and about $200,000 total with a structure.
