I knew this before, which is why we're moving with her down to NC when we move. She used to be a real estate agent, and has a friend who's still an agent...
Who deals with rentals.
*swoon*
Donna emailed her for me, and I already have like 8 properties to look at. Yes, I'd like to go with our number one choice (the duplex in Concord), but just in case, I want to have other opportunties available. I've learned not to put all my eggs in one basket, so to speak.
So this Sunday, I think I'll kidnap Ms. Donna and we'll go look at rental properties. One of them looks awesome - it's a HOUSE (EEE!!!!), but it's up in Hillsboro, so I need to see how far from Manchester it is (hubby doesn't want an hour commute, and neither do I, frankly). So we'll see how far the drive is from Manchester.
And good news on the taxes/car front as well - filed the taxes today, and we're getting enough back that I can put it all aside in the savings account, and not worry one bit about security deposits and first months' rent. BIG sigh of relief there. This, boys and girls, is why Hubby and I both have extra money taken out of our checks every pay period. So I KNOW I'm getting something back each year, and it's not chicken feed, neither. ;) Car - they've found an engine!!! Huzzah! So hopefully, within 2 weeks, I shall have my beautiful little Escort back! (not that I mind driving the Lovely Ms. Donna's Kia Sephia, but, well, I want MY car back!)
Good news all around today. And now, off to the showers to get ready for work.
