So it’s kind of crazy that we’re getting our first house…It has all happened so fast, but has been very exciting. April and I have been renting a town home for a year and half, and overall it has been a nice place notwithstanding the crappy property manager and a crazy draft during winter. Our current extended lease was due to end this coming July 31st and so we had talked about starting to look around for a house around the end of March or in April.

Well, I guess we could say it happened “in April”…the wife, not the month. Once she got started looking around online she just had it in her mind that it needed to be done, as well as hearing from a friend’s realtor that their personal opinion would be that April would be a great time to buy, but that that time period would be flooded even more so with buyers, and that now would be a perfect time to purchase a house.

Well after looking at tons of homes online via ggaronline.com April began to scout out a few possibilities with Realtor Michelle Kilcoyne (Southern Home Real Estate) but kind of came up empty handed with some houses that were well pictured online but fell quite short in person.
