We took a drive to a town to check it out for maybe buyin a house there purposes today. 20 miles outside the city. We liked it and drove past a house we’ve seen listed. Price is nice. Good size - it’s a short sale, but we’re not obligated to move out of MIL’s any time soon so we have time if the process is long. Next step is talking to our realtor friend who’ll likely be our buyers agent and get in to see the place. 4br, 2bath 2200 sq ft under 300k in our area is really good (& under our budget).
We’ll see what happens, but its nice to start our next step in life!
