Leaving home...

[Rio&Nickysmommy]

Hi! I have moved so many times in my life. I am originally from NY. I would checkout the job market and put out inquiries even before making a decision. I had moved to Las Vegas and thankfully I dint buy but rented my future husband could not get a good job their. So hence stayed back in NY. I would set some time limits for yourself if you do rent. Since it is alot of money that could pay a mortgage. I loved visiting Vegas but when I had to work their it was so diffrent. The sun and heat I loved on vacation was not the same when I had to deal with it everyday. I would visit anywhere I am going to move and do normal day to day things I would normally do and look at house and taxes and stuff first. Another option is looking for a house that you can rent with an option to buy so if you do decide to buy it then you have some of your rent money that went toward the price of the house. I wish you much luck with what every you decide. I learned one big thing its not so much where you are its who you are with.

Thank you! I did see a few places that were rent to own if you wanted to do so. That would be a nice option. We found a home today though, that has a garage that Shannon wants so badly and a large fenced in backyard that I want badly. haha It's a very inexpensive house and so we've decided to take a look at it. Shannon's going to look at it this next week while he's down there job hunting. If it turns out to be nice we figure what the hey, we'll see about getting it. I think we'll like it. It's not too close to the coast, not too far from Wilmington, and it has everything we want. Just as long as the house and neighborhood are nice it sounds like a place where we can't go wrong. Still looking though and trying not to get too far ahead of ourselves.
