We’ve made contact with a West Virginia realtor, thus far by email. I sent her a general overview of house styles, locations and price ranges that would trip our trigger, and she promptly sent back links to 7 houses.
MLB and I looked at them the other night, and 4 of the 7 were acceptable to both of us. Given the information I provided, I think the realtor did an excellent job. We looked at no listings where we immediately said “Yuck”. This is a Good Thing™.
We’ve also tagged several listings we found on our own, and shared them with her on MyERA.com1. Home buying certainly has changed over the last 15 years, and for the better, to my notion.
We’re not going to buy anything until the current tbbs World HQ is sold, however. So, we’ve asked our realtor lady to check into lease with option to buy properties, and she’s working that angle as well. She knows already that we plan to buy comfortably beneath our means.
The realtor and I are meeting on September 9, after I get off work. Camera in hand, I’ll take more detailed photos of the places we look at, and send them to My Little Bride for her review. Like I said, housing searches have changed.
