Her home had already sold. The next house was beautiful, with a private yard and a location close to the neighbourhood she wanted.
That evening she considered making an offer. By morning, she knew she couldn't. It wasn't a bad neighbourhood. It simply wasn't the community she wanted.
Have you ever loved a house and wondered whether everyday life there would feel right?
