House Hunting

Last Sunday Will and I took advantage of the gorgeous weather and went house hunting! Well, really condo hunting. We checked out several condos right downtown. They. Were. Awesome. After looking at a couple highrises, we are pretty excited to live in one. They have such great ammenities (like 24 fitness centers, "party rooms", 24 hour concierge, and swimming/grilling decks) and most of the places we looked at have amazing views. Highrises are a new concept in Nashville, so these places are brand new developments, and the developers are eager to get their units sold! This means some great deals are out there. We are leaning more toward condos at the moment, mainly because we think it would be fun to live right downtown while we are young and have no "extras" to worry about. And in 5 years or so, we can move on to a house and (hopefully) use our condo as a rental property. We are getting very, very excited to move, and looking at places has made it all that much more real! We are starting to see the urgency of moving on the places we like, too. 2 of the units we really liked are already under contract. I'll be sure to keep you posted- hopefully we'll be moving sooooooon!

I remember our conversation about this at Thanksgiving- house or condo?? I 'm glad you chose the condo with all of the fun ameneties. You'll have plenty of time later for the house in the suburbs (spoken by your cousin in a house in the suburbs!)

Happy house hunting! Keep us posted!
Love,
