again, i appreciate all the well wishes, i've got my fingers crossed that we'll be back in cali soon!!!

just a week ago we were looking at selling our house and building a new one out in Charles Town WV but when we met with the realtors about selling our house we decided that we would stick it out for a few more years. The housing market is definately a buyers market right now. But if you think that housing prices are going to be going back up any time soon you are safe to say they will be going down more before they go up. The realtor I was talking with said that he thinks the market will continue to drop for another year or 2 before it starts to recover. Dang that Fannie May and those banks with their "creative financing" Had to ruin the housing market for homeowners. Rant over...

That is a really nice looking house from the outside and for that price it appears to be a steal. Did you get to see photos of the inside? If not it may need some work depending on how disgurntled the previous homeowner was.

good luck either way.
