I’ve found the best way is to get Euro when you arrive at the airport in Europe, using your ATM card. The fees are minimal: 0-3% depending on your card.

No idea whether the dollar will be moving up or down in relation to the Euro. In fact, no one really knows such things…even the “professionals” are really just guessing. Especially since you’re buying a relatively small amount, I wouldn’t worry about it.

Which agent did you use? Was it Anna? Do you have a choice which agent to use?

Did the agent provide anything other than giving you the normal paperwork to sign and giving it to the seller? My main concern would be that the field agents don’t give any advice and just basically open the doors for you, and the office agent that actually does the market comp analysis and helps you decide on how much to bid has never seen the house, and bases the suggested offer price solely on what MLS numbers say and does not take into account the condition of the house as noted during the home tour. Just seems like the agents don’t do anything at all other than forward PDF docs from you to the seller and back.

Just curious…how many houses did you make an offer on before you finally settled on the house?

Thanks for redfin review…I’d be curious to hear other Pigg’s experience with Redfin as well.

What if your property was “under-water” (you owe more mortgage on it than it’s worth) when the government exercises eminent domain on your house? As far as I know, the government only has to pay the fair market share. Would you get slapped with a bill from the bank? Or would the bank just have to eat the difference for a non-recourse loan? I wonder if this has ever happened before.
