today's find on ebby.com

So, my favorite real estate website to search homes is Ebby.com. I just like how simple it is to list all of your specifications, and then there's usually a lot of moderately sized pictures to look at and get a glimpse of what that specific house has to offer.

At least once a week, I fill in our specifications and go shopping:


Minimum price: (not telling you our budget)
Maximum price: (not telling you our budget)
Minimum bedrooms: 3 [but 4 would be ideal, so sometimes I look for 4]
Minimum bathrooms: 2 [but 2.5 or 3 would be ideal so sometimes I search for those too]
Pool: no - not now at least...
Garage size: 2 cars or larger [a must have]

You know you're on the site too much when you recognize all the street names in the search and get excited when there's a new street that you haven't seen before.

Here's what I found today:

not a fan of the big bushes
could use more color in landscaping
