House Hunting - Day 3

This morning we visited the new listing first - the location is great, it's only three blocks away from my brother, but the house was so awful. The second was the house I viewed yesterday that I thought might be a contender. And that's it, at least for this trip anyway. So, now what? Out of everything I saw, which wasn't much, I only liked one single family home and one condo. The condo is the only one that got my heart aflutter and it's all because of the unobstructed ocean & mountain view. I haven't made any decisions but I asked my realtor to find out when it was last sold, for how much, etc. then I can mull it over.

House
Pros: peekaboo mountain view in the winter, nice wooded neighborhood, move-in ready

Cons: maintaining a big house, no master bath, my dining rm furniture won't fit, my master bdrm furniture won't fit


Condo
Pros: Freakin' amazing view, easy to maintain, move-in ready

Cons: No garage, would have to rent storage unit, 2 bedroom, deal with home owners association
