Well we have been looking for a little while already, wifes sister is our realtor, and mortgage is all figured out(VA home loan). We just have to find something now. We are no longer looking at short sales due to the timeline. Also we are not looking for our "forever" home, just a starter that's livable. On the side, I do construction and finish carpentry for my friends business so I have him and such to help do repairs/remodel as well as all our good friends in the other trades such as HVAC, electrical and plumbing. So a fixer-upper is always an option.

Also, if need be, we could stay with family for a short time or even rent elsewhere. I just despise our current complex and the management here so I refuse to stay here after august. Our current rent is more than a mortgage on a 300K house would be, including taxes.
