[QUOTE="rmirandayopo, post: 836089, member: 17400"] My wife and I just bought our first home back in December… We visited homes (like 5-6) per week… revisited just a couple over the weekend… we did that for almost a year… prices keep going down, always new and more interesting stuff to watch… Do a lot of research yourself via Internet… then you choose which homes to visit... To be pre-approved is a must… work that with your realtor… We did a list, stuff that I want and the ones the wife wants… We bring that list with us to every place that we visit and we scored the houses… Keep all those notes, some houses will show up again, different prices, so the list with your notes becomes handy… A long drive way was something that I want, but it was connected with 3 bethrooms or more houses and it was not as easy to find under the price range that we have… so I swallowed that and I’m “happy” with a two car garage, no drive way...
