So…what’s the current dilemma?  Well, we’ve seen two houses so far.  They are just about as different as you can get.

One is nicely decorated and has a lot of what we like already.  It seems like it is within our price range.  While we’d eventually like to do some more work on it, we could move in just about right away.

Second house.  Needs TONS of work to even make it livable.  But we could get it all done to our own spec.  That’s if we could buy it for the right price (aka at least 50 thousand less than what we could get house one for).

So - do we go for house one or two?  Right now we can’t go for either as we haven’t finished our process…so it might be a moot point…and we still have a few places to look at on Thursday.  But who knows?  It might be a decision we have to make.
