Yep. Houses are still selling fast and for higher prices...for now.

Currently we have narrowed it down to a select few locations in WV, however there is not to many homes currently on the market in those areas. We are now considering Greencastle and Chambersburg on the PA side which is a bit further from my brother but not out of the question. They look nice enough when driving through, but I do not know much about them for Franklin county. Most importantly are the schools, my son is in the 5th and my daughter is a freshmen in high school this year. The schools don't rate high on the realtor sites, but I do not trust their metrics because they are not just based on student ad teacher performance. Enter diversity and inclusion and things outside of actual education.

Any info would be great.

Thanks!

Good to hear from you again! I was trying to sell a move TO Monroe county to my wife, but it would give her a pretty long commute on I78, which sucks even for shorter rides.
