[quote=Anonymous]Close to 18 months, but the first 12 were much less aggressive and largely market discovery, though we did put in one bid at about month 3, but was outbid. And in retrospect, I'm so glad we we're outbid bc we were both much smarter about the market in general and our wants/needs with each additional house we saw. Ultimately we realized what was most important to us (neighborhood) which made it much easier to commit to the house we finally bought. Over the 18 months we wrote two offers and were super duper close on two others (both competitive situations) before ultimately bailing because we knew they weren't quite "it". Around here, it can take a long time especially at the mid-to-high price range as there is simply not much inventory and the market is so competitive in the very desirable areas.[/quote]
