Reply to comment by KindaEgotistical in The inventory of houses suck by KindaEgotistical

My spouse and I AND my mom were also set on a different location originally (Farmington Valley) but after a little while seeing what we could get in the valley for the same price as somewhere out East, we sucked it up and just did it. We were pleasantly surprised!!

But also, if she wanted to be closer to the shore, towns like Salem might better fit the bill.

Aha right now it’s my spouse and her mom that are for the most part set on Waterford. it’s tough but if we can find a decent house in a good location sell it in like 5-10 years we can use the equity we built and or money we’d make selling to get a house in new london county or wherever else. That’s my thought process right now

I'd be careful about that "money we make" assumption. I bought at the 2006 peak. Took 15 years for the price to get back above that peak.

I’ll actually keep that in mind that is good to know that, that could be a possibility
