House Shopping

I've started house shopping. I found a townhouse I LOVE that is in my price range, is less than three years old (built in 2005), has granite counter tops, laminate wood floors in the kitchen, matching stainless steel appliances, three bedrooms, two baths, a garage, and a backyard with a vinyl fence.

Is it impulsive to buy the third house you've looked at just because you adore it so much? The only problem with it that I can see is its not in Idaho Falls, its in Blackfoot. Which translates to being on my bus route to work (yeah I'd get to sleep in an extra half hour) but farther away from the good stores, the mall, my doctor, my dentist, and lower taxes. I'm going to be looking at it again today, but this time, I'm taking pictures.

I want to see the pictures!

It sounds luxurious. Isn't Blackfoot in the middle of nowhere? And did you mean you woudl be farther away from lower taxes?

I'm glad your job is going well. It's good of you to post again.

Idaho Falls has higher taxes because they're in a different county than Blackfoot.

Blackfoot is not in the middle of nowhere. Its between Idaho Falls and Pocatello, and I have to drive through it to get to work so I'm actually closer to work.
