I'm minorly annoyed with the realtor

My personal preference is for multi-floor homes. It's primarily an aesthetic preference, but I also think they do a better job keeping the public & private parts of the home separate and keeping noise away from the bedrooms.

Single floor homes also have their advantages. With my knees, being able to do everything without climbing stairs will make life easier in the long run. I do like the look of Arts and Crafts style homes, and I could hold my nose and live with a Ranch (even though I think most ranch-style homes have all the personality of a shoebox).

What I can't live with, and what we specifically told the realtor we aren't interested in, is a split-level. It combines all the inconveniences of a multi-level home with blandness of a Ranch.

So of course she included several split-levels in the list she sent us. *face palm*

When I was home shopping it got to the point where I was emailing listing numbers to the agent and having them setup the appointments. I'm not impressed with the process. I also hope you have GREAT patience if you consider or put an offer in on a short sale.

This lady comes very highly recommended, I just think we did a bad job of explaining how much we don't want a split level.

The next box we need to check off is getting pre-approved for the financing. Then we can actually start looking at houses in person.

Bad realtors regularly need a dressing down and to be re-focused on what you want, what you will accept and what is emphatically NOT allowed.
