Hi Shivani, How are things progressing with your search process for a new home? 

I’m excited about hearing from everybody and sharing my progress as well as hearing progress of others.

There are areas in the path of progress right now that are still relatively affordable and have decent rent to value ratios and are poised for long term appreciation.
