We decided not to get a house next May....Erin says we need another car more than we need a house. Which is true...with our plan we might be able to get another car next winter. There are pluses and minuses to a house vs apartment and right now I'm ok with apartment. No yard, no maintenance....granted I WANT the space and kitchen you get with a house. SO, next May we will move, but into another townhouse in a community that offers new home credit. Basically as we pay rent we earn money towards the down payment of a new home. (I wish we had moved this May) I've got our choices down to 4 apartments. We will have to go see them later on to make a decision. They all offer townhouses, some with basements, some have garages, all offer full size washer/dryer connections...so we could get new. :o) Then they would be ours for when we get a house.
Basically our requirements this time around: nicer, more spacious kitchen, 3 bedrooms or 2 bedrooms with a basement. I want to have our bedroom, baby bedroom, and then either a room or basement for guests/hang out.
Our favorites:
The Quarry In Hilliard...I want to move back to that area. Nice kitchens, garage. Granted it's either 2 bedroom or 3 bedroom....it's got great amenities.
Olentangy Commons Ok area, close to 315, LOVE the kitchen. even enough space to add one of those kitchen carts they have at Target...all our requirements basically!
The others...What gets me is the kitchens....But the location for both is decent and they are comparable to where we are. (we would stay here if we had down payment credit)
Heritage Glen
Worthington Meadows
So yeah....That's our plan....for now. But with our plan of starting to try for a baby being a year from August, Erin really wants to get a newer car first. So we have two good reliable safe cars. :o)
