Property Virgins
Today the hubs and I are venturing into the wide world of house hunting. I suppose we aren't technically property virgins, but I bought my first place years before we met and the hubs has never been an official home owner. The first time I bought it was pretty easy. I knew exactly where I wanted to live. How much I could afford. And I only had to please one person....me. I'm a little nervous for this time around. We are in a new city with a vague idea of where we want to live. A sorta kinda price range on what we want to spend. And we have a somewhat different list of house "must haves." I suppose we did manage to agree on the house that almost was back in Columbus, so I know it can be done. But that house was brand new, built to our specifications with every last little detail accounted for. Now we're looking at older homes, with some updates and a few more compromises. All I'm hoping for today is to narrow down our search a bit.....and that we make it out alive. Open houses....here we come!

Have fun...mu advice with older houses..make sure all the windows open and shut! (sounds dumb but ours were so pretty...read newly painted..we didn't check them...they were all painted shut!) That is an expensive fix!
