Not to be THAT GUY, but why move if you're going to stay in Maryland. How much farther is it if you were to move into PA?

HOA = Association pays to fight the code violator
Covenant = YOU pay to fight the code violator
If no one complains about what you do (HOA/Cov), you’re good to go.
You missed the houses directly across the street from me (one acre) and directly behind me (three acres) by about three months. Both sold for $550K. The one across the street originally sold for $650K at the peak of the last bubble. Really nice home. I'm looking at Zillow and nothing for sale right now. Will PM you if any for sale signs go up. Houses here sell quickly, typically in a week or two.
Yeah, please shoot me a PM. I have been watching the western Carroll County area, but this is starting to get painful.
I think my house would fit you fine. Just need to talk the wife into selling.. PM sent
Fabs, I've been to his place. About a mile from me. Nice neighborhood.
Same here, and will haul just about anything, except major demo stuff. They also response quickly if they miss you, and they've only missed us once in 10 years.Opposite here. I've used Area Refuse for about a decade, since Long Refuse went away. No problems whatsoever.
I have been instructed by my better half that said area is out of the question because the kids have to attend 2 different elementary schools. Our 9 year old would be going to a different elementary school than our 5 year old next year, and that is out of the question. We want both of them to get on the bus together for the two years that they will be in elementary school together and we want the 9 year old to show his sister the ropes and look out for her.
My wife cannot wrap her head around Parrs Ridge Elementary and Mount Airy Elementary. Truthfully, I am having a hard time understanding it too. If it wasn't for that issue, there are a decent amount of homes I would be interested in in that area.
Just so you know, they would still ride the same bus. The bus drops them off at the appropriate school, which are basically next to each other.
What's your budget? If below $500K, I think you'll have to look in northern Carroll County or else Washington County. There's a major influx of new people into the state. Nice houses on acreage within reasonable driving distance to the Balt-DC corridor are relatively rare and priced accordingly.

Next time you are over, I'll have you explain this to my wife. lol
Now, I am trying to figure out how I can afford to buy a lot and build a house on it. This stuff in Maryland is just ridiculous.
