I'm not the greatest at giving advice but from my experience: Narrow down on towns you're interested in Check school districts Check comp sales Don't rush!! My hubby and I have been looking for a couple of months. Good luck with your search.

HelenZ So worth the wait :) Member since 10/07 2862 total posts Name: Helen	Re: New to the Home Board! hey Dana!!! glad to see another familiar face on the home board!! what town/ area will you be looking in? my advice is this.......in this market, if you see anything you like low ball your offer! sometimes people are afraid of losing a house they love so they bid higher than they have to, we went in with a really low offer (since it was a fixer upper) and we just negotiated back & forth. good luck on your search!!!
