Mother is Upset
	Dear Ms. Lank: My daughter moved 6 months ago to San Antonio for her work. She has been consistently looking for a home with a Realtor almost since she moved. I have also looked with her when I have gone to visit. Are we being too picky? I find the housing market of homes within her price range to be difficult. There are a lot of what appear to be "flip this house" do it yourselfers, homes never updated, homes with flagrant problems even before inspection, homes with very difficult land grades (driveways almost at a 90 degree angle). She is getting frustrated, we feel guilty having the Realtor trudge on and on, but what are we to do? The "primo" homes are swept up it seems while my kid is at work. –P. S., Rochester

	Every real estate market is completely different, and I’m not qualified to judge San Antonio. Neither are you. By now your daughter is probably an expert in her own price range there, and I'm sure something right is just waiting for her. Perhaps she will have found it by the time this appears in the paper -- I do hope so.
