As we drive down one of our favorite streets lined with well maintained homes of all sizes, shapes and colors I cast my eyes on a lovely ranch home that I've admired for a long time and notice that it's now for sale. I cast a wide-eyed look to my husband and say, "Oh I hope it's not too late". We've toured this neighborhood over and over looking for the right home and here it is, our favorite house on the street. It's just what we've been searching for and in the neighborhood of Chicopee we want. This home has such curb appeal and we can tell the owners loved and maintained this home with pride. I get more and more excited as I quickly look up the listing and notice it's still available and the inside is as sweet as the out. We have to have this house.  I see another car pull up slowly behind us and I can see them writing something down. They must be doing the same thing we are but I think "not today, this one's ours". Game on!!
