The Mr. and I are in the works to finding our first home for The Green Hearth Project – together. Truth be told, I’m already a first-time homebuyer, but when the opportunity for me to move to Chicago came, I had to leave my one year old milestone back in the desert.
That being said, when I was looking for my true first-home back in 2013, I wasn’t actually searching for a home, I was really just looking for a place to rent with a friend, and somehow ended up one night, sick with a cold (runny nose and everything) hugging the notary because I was officially a home owner! Looking back on it, I don’t regret my decisions, but boy, I have learned a lot and don’t plan to make some of the same mistakes I did back then.
