Oh man thats another one.....We have to look at houses, have it picked out before this place even sells! When in fact we should wait for the sale, or at least some offers before we start looking too much. I have my pre-approval certificate and that so when we do want to buy we can make an offer and close a deal within hours.
I went to where we want to move and looked at a few places just to get a feel for the market there about a month ago and there was a place she said she really wanted. Of course this was a brand new house that she wanted to replace the carpet in straight away and some other things she didn't like! It was nice, but I felt that it wasn't going to be big enough for what we'd eventually want and by the time I paid all the extra fees this place becomes quite pricey. After whining to me about it and asking me to find a way to buy it and arguing with her why I thought it was a bad idea....she admits about a week ago that maybe we should wait and buy an older place for less that she can change everything in because yeah it doesn't make sense to take out carpet before it's even lived on.
