I have been busy researching homes for our upcoming move. Since "Buying and Selling" on HGTV is filmed in the Austin area, where we plan on settling, I have been watching the show to get a feel for the market.
Unfortunately, the show can be quite insulting. Seeing people whine because their children's futures will be ruined if they can't get into the $550K home.
I did see the sort of home I was looking for on the show-- the sort of home that the sellers were leaving for greener lawns. Apparently, the sort of home that I've grown up in, that I think of as a "regular house," is called a "starter home".
It's the kind of home that my grandparents lived in, the kind my mom lives in, and the kind I've always lived in. I guess it's the residential equivalent of first grade!
Well, we are looking for the perfect starter home to finish in!
