    Might I suggest Zillow[^] so you can look at what homes are selling for in that area, what it's suggested value is, property taxes, etc... Good-luck!

                      I tried it and it says there are no homes at that address. :doh: I hope the house didn't fall into a worm hole while I was at work.

                          *hack* *gag* give me at least a half dozen wooded acres to completely hide any traces of my neighbors, ideally I'd like several times that.

                                    Symmetry is for the unimaginative, dull, and dimwitted. Or for the people who commute an hour each day in the morning darkness, and return at night, and can't find their way to their house, identical to every other house, except for the fact that it's easy to remember "1 left, 2 right".

                                      Might I suggest Zillow[^] so you can look at what homes are selling for in that area, what it's suggested value is, property taxes, etc... Good-luck!

                                      Jeez, how depressing. Not a single house around where we live that is under 520K :( The house where we live in now (we rent one of the floors) supposedly goes for 842K!!! ¡El diablo está en mis pantalones! ¡Mire, mire!

                                          Symmetry is for the unimaginative, dull, and dimwitted. Or for the people who commute an hour each day in the morning darkness, and return at night, and can't find their way to their house, identical to every other house, except for the fact that it's easy to remember "1 left, 2 right".
