We may have some extra money coming in in the next month or so, so we’ve decided to go looking at houses. Now, most people wonder why we moved to New Brunswick. Our standard answer is that there are great people here, a community we love, it’s quiet, and we love being near the ocean.

However, the truth is, we moved here because of the cheap housing market! That’s right. Fantastic houses for DIRT CHEAP.

I mean, when people find out what they can get ahold of for 175K, they just flip.

But, we don’t want to spend 175K. Realistically, we’re hoping to keep our mortgage to under 100K. As a result, here are the houses we’re looking at:

Dream Home #1

140K. 3 bedrooms, 1.5 bath, office, 3 car garage, fruit trees.

This little beauty of a house is actually our first pick (we think). It’s a little above what we were hoping to pay, but it’s just a gorgeous house. We’re going to see it this Saturday, so we we’ll see if the pictures hold up, but we’ve fallen in love with this house. Right size, right features, right property. All great.

Dream Home #2

115K. 4 bedrooms. Office, 1.5 bath, koi pond, great garden.

This house isn’t as nice outside as the other one, but we love the inside, and we really, really love the garden area. It’s hard to beat, really.

Anyways, I know you shouldn’t count your chickens before the get deep fried, but we’re just loving New Brunswick, and we thought we’d share some of the beauty ;-)
