[Life] House Hunting - Getting Your Piece of the Pie

7/19/2015

 
Summer tourist season is well underway. The weather is lovely in the high 70s and low 80s with just a touch of rain to clear the air. And while some locales are worrying about the increase in crime, newcomers only see the beauty of Asphyxiation Point. The demand for housing inside the city limits is at an all time high as the area's popularity rises. New buildings have appeared in older neighborhoods as both locals and the newly arrived fight for their piece of "heaven".  City fathers don't seem to be in a hurry to annex outlying areas, preferring to keep our small tourist town -- just that.  How can you find one of the rare spots to claim as your own?  Here are a few tips.

  •  Make friends with the locals and let them know you are interested in moving into town. People talk, and in Asphyxiation Point they talk a lot. Sally at the salon tells her customer Joyce she is leaving town. Joyce tells her client Sam who tells his wife Patrice and ---- pretty soon you know which home will be available.
  • Offer to be a roommate. Having your own space is good but sharing is fine too. Less rent going out can be spent at our fine restaurant or simply to buy a few beers for the gang at one of the drinking establishments.
  • Become a Peeping Tom -- in the house hunting sense of course. Watch the comings and going of folks and when you spot an empty apartment or home, watch for it to come on the market. That means camp out with a keen eye as most vacancies get filled within minutes of becoming available. 
  • Watch the obituaries in The Times as well as the police reports. Deaths and incarcerations lead to empty rentals. 
  • Take a job and commute for the time being. The more you are in town, the more likely it will be to find your spot!
