How to House Hunt

Here are some tips on how to house hunt.

1.) Drive around and look for houses with 'For Sale' signs.  Typically there are flyers in the front lawn.  Act natural and dart from the vehicle to the lawn and back.  DO NOT GO BAREFOOT.  You never know if they have a dog.

2.) You know you are in the elite neighborhood when you see giant animal statues next to their doors.  Not gnomes, but elephants, lions, and tigers.  I don't think they realize that these animals will not protect their houses like a real elephant, lion, or tiger.

3.) Do not cross the train tracks.  By mistake if you do, please find the nearest exit!

4.) If you decided to take a picture of the house do not sit in your car and take it.  You look creepy.

5.) During your hunt you may get hunger and stop for a snacky at the local Taco Bell.  If the cashier does a fist pound-handshake, don't be scared.  Just know you should embrace their culture.  This will result in a free drink!

6.) Above all be patient, enjoy the journey, open-minded, and supportive of others opinions.

I've been a lucky one because my fiance has never thrown my opinions to the side.  We are still hunting, but are patient.  When the time is right the Lord will let us know and He will guide us in the right direction.

Happy Hunting!
