I'm relocating from NV to WV or VA for work. I've been out here around 6 weeks now and I'll be working in the Middletown area in VA. Been looking at houses for a while with a realtor and she's awesome so far. Thought we had a house lined up and had it under contract in Augusta, but the owners didn't want to play along to make it work. House needed some work to finish and I offered to do it within reason, but they tried to keep the earnest money and everything. That's all played out and over now and I got my money back so the search continues.
So I've been searching the Inwood, Berkeley Springs, Augusta, Capon Bridge. Have one that may work out in Inwood, but I'm not in love with it or the taxes in that area at all.
Found a couple around Baker, but from the reviews my wife is finding the schools there suck. Anyone have kids in the area or know of the school quality there? Taxes seem to be much lower on houses I've looked at in Baker and the owners aren't putting sentimental value into the selling price as much.
