As a former realtor I have some hints for you to make it easier. Take your camera and take pictures of the outside of the house, and what you like on the inside.

After you have seen a few your mind will "make" the perfect house. When you go back to look you will have sworn the one with the big bath had the perfect kitchen cabinets and a huge yard, only to figure out later, they were from 3 different houses.

Have fun looking, happy hunting!

WooHoo!!! What great news :D:D:D

Awesome!!!!! How exciting!!!! Are you looking in Winthrop only or also in surrounding towns?

How exciting. I remember when I started the house hunt. When you find the right one, it's a wonderful feeling.

way cool. i'm so excited for you

Congratulations! I am very happy for you. Now, let each other know exactly what features you would like and stick to it if you can.
I hope you have a really good real estate agent. That makes all the difference in the world.

Closser to our work. My DH works in Willmington, and I work in Chemsford.

We are taking a lot of notes ( Pros and cons ) about each house.and rating it.

It will be so nice living closer to work. Those are really nice areas close enough to Boston but still country enough. Good luck!!!

I am so excited for you. Have fun looking. I hope you find a great one fast.
