I will absolutely do that!  We are waiting to hear back from the realtor about property condition.  Trust me, I'm ready to get an airline ticket today    Howard looks like a really fun community.

Thanks again,
Jessie

Hi guys,
Thank you so much for replying back.  I thoroughly enjoy looking up real estate online.  From time to time I will look up homes in Kansas, as I grew up in St. Marks. It's a very small community West of Wichita.  I've been out here in Oregon/Washington for nearly 14 years.  It has been my hope to return to Kansas to live in a small town once again.  My husband & I recently adopted 5 year old twin boys. We want more than anything to get them out of the Portland metropolitan area, where there is much crime and gang activity.  My husband is in law enforcement and I am an RN in the county jail: thus, how we met.    

I fell in love with the outside of the house on Chestnut, or it's potential.  We are hoping to be able to buy this house, fix it up and use it as our family's 2nd home, until my husband can retire in 3 or 4 years.  We make several trips a year to KS, already, visiting family and friends.  It would be nice to have our own place to stay.  Most of my family lives in Wichita, Cheney, Peck, and Newton.

Thank you all for your help.  I will surely keep you posted.

Hello,
We live in Vancouver, Washington and were thinking of buying a home in Howard.  I grew up in St. Mark's, KS.

I'm having trouble finding any information on the web (very little in fact) about Howard.

I have a few questions and would be grateful to anyone who could answer or email me at JessieOFOZ@aol.com

Where is the nearest hospital or medical facility?  How far do you have to travel for groceries?  I'm guessing there's no Home Depot or Lowes?  Where does one go to purchase home repair, sheet rock, lumber etc.

Also, does anyone know if there are many contractors in the area that do remodel?

Any help is much appreciated. 

Thanks,
Jessica
