Dream House Scenario

You always take Sunday drives to look at houses.

You have a favorite house.

You drive by it for years smiling at how beautiful it is.

It's for sale.

You stop and go to the Open House.

The house is everything you ever dreamed it would be.

You're surprised to find out how much it costs.

SEVERAL hundred thousand less than you'd think it would cost.

When you get home...you look it up online.

When you ask Mr. Google about the address news articles come up about a horrific crime with multiple deaths.

Could you seriously consider buying the house?

It's in your budget, you're in the market, but yeah...some horrible actions went down in there.  

RECENTLY.

Building your dream house!

Have any of you built a home yet?

Was it custom or did you build in a planned community?

How did you start?

What pitfalls should one be on the lookout for?

What do you wish you would have done differently?

Is your home valued at what you paid for it now?  More?  Less?
