Buying a house...

...is a painful never-ending process, it seems. At this point, I'd almost rather shave my junk with a rusty piece of aluminum.

Everything about the process is foreign to me. I hate it. Living in a van down by the river doesn't sound like such a bad idea afterall.

total pain in the butt. Hire a good inspector whatever else you do.

And work with a realtor you trust. And don't go to a "we approve everyone" mortgage place....work with a bank.

I work with my real estate agent. She works here full-time and does real estate as a side job. She's great.

I've already done the looking. Actually, my offer on a house in the Crestwood Colony addition was accepted. I find out this week when closing is. Probably early next week, meaning a Memorial Day weekend of moving. Yay.

I just hate not knowing all I need to know. It sucks.

Yes, sir.

I don't know why Google Maps has the arrow where it's at. If you go to the above link and look at the Satellite view (zoom in, though) my house is the one on the cul-de-sac with the concrete slab (basketball court) in the backyard.
