Recently my wife and I went through the tiring process of purchasing a new home.  We looked at a thousand homes and drove a million miles—or so it seemed.  If you’ve ever purchased a pre-existing home (as opposed to building one), you understand the frustration in finding the perfect house.  There is always something not quite right.  Unless one can afford to build the exact house he wants in the exact location of his choosing, purchasing an existing home can be quite frustrating—that is until my wife had an epiphany.  She said, “You know, we’re just going to have to realize this house will likely be a starter house.”  Right, a starter house!  We don’t have to live in it forever.  In fact, we can just plan to live in it for a few years—gain some experience on the ins and outs of home buying and home ownership—then once we’ve outgrown it we can sell it (hopefully for a profit) and move into something more long term.  Once we came to that conclusion we were more than willing to settle for something less than ideal and felt completely at peace about it.
