Places to Live

Finding a new place to live isn’t always easy. I have been living in the same Apartment for nine years and I thought it was time for a change. I have always wanted to buy a Condo or a Townhouse, but I didn’t have the money for a Down payment. But now, I have a little money saved up and I want to buy a place of my own.

I didn’t want To go through a Real estate agent yet so I started looking around the city on my own. I wasn’t sure if I wanted a townhouse or a Single-family home. I didn’t want to live in a Multi-story building anymore, not even if I had a Penthouse unit. It was too noisy and I wanted a Backyard for my dog, Shiloh.

I looked at a Duplex as well as some traditional houses. One of the last houses I saw was a Two-bedroom, one-bath bungalow. It was small enough for one person, but big enough for me and my dog. When Shiloh saw the backyard, I think it was Love at first sight. I’d like to say that I pick the house, but really, it was Shiloh’s choice. I don’t think he would ever Forgive me if I didn’t buy that house.
