FSBO

Okay, I'll start by saying in my limited time on earth so far, realtors are near worthless in my opinion. (I do apologize to any offended realtors; this is, after all, my opinion.) We are yet to benefit from one despite clear, concise things we're looking for. So, at this point in life and at this set of events, I believe we'll FSBO our house. We have a lot to do to get it ready, but we're the most vested people in selling this place. The others we've encountered do not seem as interested.

So, in the meanwhile as we wait for "word" from the interview, we're readying ourselves to move away from this heat and a little closer to what we deem "God's country."

I've read and read and read about how to get ready to handle the weather changes that we'll endure. Everything from articles about snow tires, where to buy them, DOT regulations for various states, etc. I'm told by natives that it's typically not that bad with the appropriate gear. I realize we need to get some items and create our very own weather-ready kit for Winter.

Also, I have want-itis when it comes to an AWD. That is horrible. But, I'm afraid at the same time it could be very necessary. I'm looking at several, but the cheapest and one I like so far is the Suzuki SX4 Crossover. My wife has a Suzuki Reno, and we've enjoyed it. It's peppy in its own right and does decently on gas mileage. Plus, it's pretty comfortable given the size of the vehicle.

All in time, I suppose. At the very least, we're probably going to FSBO our home, perhaps even list it on Ebay. We have to do quite a bit of finishing, though. I'm dreading that, but at the same time, I trust in God that things will be fine. I believe, after all, He's got our backs.

Peace (got to rest while I sweat my guts out!)
