House hunting is nothing
like ‘House Hunters’
I’ve graduated from spending hours scrolling Zillow and Redfin to actually going with a
real estate agent to see condo properties in person. Let me tell you, it’s nothing like “House
Hunters.” I’d be thrilled if I could find my dream home in 30 minutes and fast forward
through the actual hunt.
After trying to mentally arrange my furniture by looking at photos of condos for four

months, my New Year’s resolution was to get
pre-qualified for a mortgage, mask up, and
get out there.
The only thing that’s similar to the
HGTV show is that I’m one of those picky
buyers. My Realtor isn’t sick of me yet, but
I have a feeling that by the time we’re done
with this process he’ll be glad to see me at the
closing.
We started the search in Decatur with
what appeared to be a move-in ready condo.
Kudos to the photographer who was able to
deftly hide the old appliances, worn carpet,
badly painted walls and cabinetry, and the

view of the junky backyard from the balcony.
Then there was the Midtown condo allegedly built in the 1990s but the previous owners
had somehow time-warped to the 1960s. I’m not afraid of some cosmetic repairs, but this
place would need aTARDIS to bring it into the 21st century.
On to Brookhaven, and a double shot on a cold and blustery Saturday afternoon. I saw
two condos that were cute on the inside but had
red flags snapping in the wind outside. With such a
high HOA fee, it made me wonder why there was so
many tarps and peeling paint.
In the farthest west reaches of Buckhead, I saw a
nice studio that I already knew was too small, but I 4
liked the property. I’m hoping a one-bedroom will
become available soon, but in the meantime the
search goes on.
Honestly, I never pictured myself house hunting.
The burden of property wasn’t something that
interested me but increasing rent and the pandemic
and the fact that I ain’t getting any younger made me rethink.
I’ve been happily ensconced in my apartment in Old Fourth Ward for more than 15
years. Moving from here with all my junk is going to be tough, so I’ve been looking for a
place with a similar feel and atmosphere. Yes, I know that’s a tall order.
But I’m waiting for the condo to “click,” for the feeling of warmth and comfort to wash
over me when I walk in the door.
