OK, this one's at the extreme upper end of our price range, but it's pretty much exactly what we're looking for.
More on our pending escape from Massachusetts:
We met with a real estate agent to discuss the ins and outs of converting our two-family house to condominiums, so as to maximize our profits when we finally sell. Our current tenants, who were renting on an "at will" basis, have given their notice and are moving out on August 31. We found a couple to rent the apartment to on a short-term basis through the end of December.
Starting January 1st and proceeding through the rest of the winter, we will be taking care of any necessary updates and renovations to prepare the units to go on the market in the spring. Then we go hard into job and house hunting mode.
Freedom, she is near!
