[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We are in the same boat OP. Unfortunately, my DH and I dont agree on a lot :roll: He doesnt care about commute, my hard line is commute under 45 minutes at rush hour including daycare pickup and dropoff He cares about schools and I think things can swing either way in the 5years plus before he enters K I want turn key he sees "potential" -but neither of us are handy and he cant do basic tasks at home regularly so I dont see big projects getting done DIY [b]My biggest complaint with the market right now is that people are trying to sell houses for 50-100K more with no updates or changes from when they bought in 2015. Find another sucker because I am not paying more for a house you have worn down without improving. If you put a new roof, new appliances, updated bathroom and kitchens, etc. - maybe 50K but not 100 or 125K increase. We are looking in PG, Howard, AA county areas. [/b] [/quote] Precisely. [/quote] I find it funny that you don't want to accept a higher price PP but your demands list practically ensures you're going to have to cough up $100K over what your husband would be willing to settle for. Turn-key and a commute under 45 mins at rush hour including daycare and pick-up is going to be tough find for under $700K anywhere in this area. Though you might have luck in the PG/Howard County areas.[/quote] Also, I am not putting money into something I am not happy with in the holistic sense. My husband cares more about what the world sees, I could care less. Im not signing any papers for a home that doesn't add to our life balance. Yes, it is possible in PG/HoCo. Im not from DC although my husband may be transferred to DC area within the his agency. And our budget is like 350K HAHAHAHA 700K hahahahahahahahahaha :lol: So yes we are living in two different worlds. [/quote]
