Potential Homes

Since we have been checking out houses for sale in Alamogordo, NM prices have dropped which makes us very happy. Each time we look at the listing we go back to the same few houses and out of the those same few houses that we really like, a couple of them have dropped 10-20 grand. We are thinking (and hoping) within the next 66 days until we get there that maybe they will drop even more. We (as in Nick) is already communicating with a Realtor!

When we first got our assignment to NM we were able to afford a nice home, 3 beds, 2 baths, garage but a tad smaller and older than we would prefer with a little more work to be done than we prefer.

But now we can step it up a notch!
One top favorite potential home that we hope is still for sale when we get there is:


THIS ONE.
We absolutely love everything about this house. And a big plus it its the biggest sq ft house and it just had a price reduction.
It would need a tad bit of work, take out the pool and add hot tub, pull out grass and add stone and it already has a BBQ area outside, and extend the patio, and we love the outside brick fencing. A little inside work could be done but not much at all.

Here is another on our top list:

THIS ONE.
What we like about this is the price, over 2,000 sq ft with FIVE bedrooms! This means we would each have our own room, plus a guest room and a 'craft' room. We LOVE the big shady tree out front and hope that maybe by the time we get to NM if it isn't sold that they price will drop even more considering it has been for sale for a very long time. It also has the laundry room on the 2nd floor- LOVE. But, it needs a little work. Needs new tile, carpet pulled out, kitchen extended some how, pool taken out, hot tub put in, grass pulled out, patio extended, BBQ area built outside. But all of this over time would be really fun.

Here is another on our top:

THIS ONE.

We love the pictures of it. It needs very LITTLE work. The work that does need done is just minor things that we would enjoy to do. We would take out all the grass and add stones, and extend the patio and build an outdoor bbq area. The view is amazing and love the brick wall as fencing. Each time we look at listings, this is one that we always go back to.

There are a few other potential houses too, but I will save those for next time!
