Finding the Right House - Part XV: That's all Folks...

As I type this final segment we've been in the new house about 6 months. It's starting to feel like home which is much better than feeling like a hotel like it did in the first week or two. We're about 98% unpacked. We've bought a living room set, a dining room set and seating for the family room. We still need to buy a master bedroom set and we've got a long list of odds & ends we still need to buy and that'll just take time.

In our first week here, our garage door opener broke and had to be replaced. A couple of month later our septic system began to act oddly and we had to have it pumped. Then we had to fix the air conditioner and after that have a plumber out due to a water pressure problem.
Ahhh.... yes.... the joys of homeownership!

My advice… FORCE your sellers to provide a home warranty!

Finding the Right House was pretty simple though very stressful.

And as I must be famous for saying now… It's a series of compromises.
