About Me
Searching for the Dream Home

Soon, my husband and I will be searching for our dream home. After living in a fixer-upper for the past ten years, I am more than ready for a change of address. I’ve created a must-have list of items for my new house.

On this blog, you will determine how a real estate agent can match you with the right home for your budget.
