[quote=joec] (…)finding a place you actually want to live in is incredibly hard.
I’ll just add that this issue will probably be the biggest problem so if you are lucky enough to find that place, I’d jump on it (…)
I’m sure after looking at a ton of homes, you sorta know within 1-3 minutes of walking into a place if you can even consider a place home so if you’re ready, start looking now and just find a place you really like for the long term.
Good luck.[/quote]
Thanks, that is so true – that is hard to find something we like, and that after a while you know right away if the house is something you will be happy with (in itself, barring unseen issues like foundation) – and if we love something we are very likely to jump on it and be a bit impulsive – and compromise more on price/commute probably. We’ll start looking very soon. Thanks!
