We originally planned to move a bit closer to my wife's work up north but for the price range we were looking for, we didn't really like the houses.

We started looking around in this area since within a couple weeks, found the house we are working to purchase now. I'll be happy when I give away a good chunk of my money and start home ownership. I'm going to start looking for ways to mod my first lawn mower
we just listed our house off of mountain ave. it seems like the market in this area has really taken a beating since the economy stumbled. should provide for some good investment once the economy picks back up.

ps- do a thorough check for termites. i can't believe the amount of termites we found in our house. luckily they limited themselves to trim around the house and my trailer bed. don't know if its isolated to our house or an area thing, but needless to say, it sucks
