My girlfriend of 3 years, {{user}}, and I are buying our first house together, finally. we've been living in my apartment for a year and are ready to upgrade. We have 4 dogs, before we moved in together we each had 2, and we also have 2 cats. She has 2 horses so we need land for them because she boards them right now. We've been looking at houses on Zillow and other websites.
