Lockheed also provides a realtor in the location we are moving to. We met him a week ago on our "House Hunting Trip". We've been looking at houses online since GoodLooking officially accepted (and by that I mean he signed a paper committing us to at least a year and giving up his choice of start date which in the end we waited I think 3 weeks for them to tell us then it was less than a month away. First bite of stress right there). We then decided on a weekend to take the trip and we each came up with a list of houses in our price range that we liked and then we narrowed that down to 15 or so. We left Lufkin with that list and when we got there, only 8 were available to look at (meaning they weren't already under contract).
Our realtor is nice and shows us any house we want to look at (as long as it isn't under contract). Not that that isn't something that all realtors do... It's there job but anyway. GoodLooking wasn't excited about him the first day because the realtor wasn't open about telling us about neighborhoods or giving tips or tricks but the next day he was a little more open and he is ok with him now.
On that first day we went to a house that GoodLooking really likes and so I convinced myself it would be perfect so we called the realtor but he told us that it went under contract late the night that we looked at it. UGH
The trip wasn't wasted though because we got some good "alone" time (we did have Little Brother with us), found neighborhoods that we like, Honey spent time with Oma, and we got to eat at a GREAT fancy Brazilian restaurant.
