Met with a Realitor. He showed us on the map parts of douglas county in our price range. He referred us to a broker at Wells Fargo. We are using our new credit cards, Michelle is holding a AT&T phone account and paying on it. I paid off a lot of bad bills. We will speak with the referal that Mr. Valentine gave us. In another month or so, we will run that credit report again. It would be NICE if the scores were high enough. (fingers crossed).

Michelle roasts beans at the Starbucks Plant and I work for the Washoe Tribe, both in Douglas county. We did live there for the first several years after we moved from Fallon. The kids have remained in Douglas schools and we want them both to go to Douglas High, not Carson. The plan is to move one last time into a mortgage in that county. I'm sorry you didn't meet Michelle when we were in South Bend. How many kids did you and the Hubby have? Your first child must be out of college by now.

Sounds like you guys are doing great! Just curious: why Douglas County? My best to Michelle. Hope to meet her sometime. Suzy

Thanks Susie. I will look into that. My focused intent is: a house in douglas county with an upstairs, a zen room, enough space for Michelle's dogs, before Robin starts Douglas High School this Fall.

Keep up the good work! Suggest you check out a website called creditsesame.com It allows you to keep track of your credit score and gives you ideas, including what credit cards to apply for, etc. Try it! It has been successful for me and it's FREE!
