i think it is totally okay to be picky and get what you want. you are spending a lot of money and will be in it for a long time, don't settle! Something will come your way. I know it can be so frustrating though. good luck

FH and I felt the same way - we went to open houses for the millionth time and said "this will be the last time -we're taking a break" and then we found our house Chat Icon

We felt the same way. That is why we decided to take a break and wait until we can afford a little more. The houses in our price range need work and we are not willing to do that.

Good luck and just be patient. Don't settle.Chat Icon

WE felt the exact same way. Be patient. I felt that looking at a lot of houses helped us to realize how great the house we bought was. Hang in there. You will find a house. And again, don't settle. Your house is out there!

Re: Seriously I feel like we will never find a great house...

It'a a major purchase and sometimes it takes a long time to find the perfect house. But looking at a lot of houses - even if they're terrible - can be a good thing because it can teach you what you want and don't want in t ahouse.
We looked for over a year and when we found the house we bought - we knew what a great deal it was because of all of the research we had done looking at other houses.
Your house is out there - just try and be patient!Chat Icon

It takes time - don't settle b/c it is a huge investent (obviously)! We started the process in March and we are doing our final-walk through and getting the keys in 1 1/2 hours (since we closed Monday). You will find it - you just have to look at some S H I T in the process Chat Icon
