Do you ever browse house listings online just for fun? I do it all the time, and I’d love to know I’m not the only one. It’s a slightly odd hobby, but not entirely unreasonable—Jeff and I are saving to buy another home, and I can’t help daydreaming about what we’d do. We’ve been saving seriously for the past two years for a sizeable down payment, and although we’re not quite there yet, that won’t stop me from browsing. Seriously, it won’t.
A while back I decided to share this house-hunting obsession with you. I’ve partnered with Owners.com—a national real estate brokerage that focuses on making buying and selling homes personalized, efficient, and straightforward—to show a few homes I’ve been dreaming about. There’s one mid-century fixer-upper I’ve had my eye on for more than a month. It’s still on the market. Could I convince Jeff we need it and get a deal?
You’ll have to tell me if it’s worth it—honestly. It’s not exactly inexpensive and would require a lot of work.
