My husband and I used to live in the city.But we often faced a lot of problems there.There was a lot of late?night noise.It was difficult to find parking.And the rent of the apartment was high.Finally,my husband and I decided to move to the suburb outside Boston.

We started looking for our new home.It turned out that many other people were also moving to the suburbs and it wasn’t easy to find a nice house there.Finally we went to see a small and dark house.It needed a lot of work.But it was well built and it was on a street where we could walk to Starbucks,restaurants and bus stops.Well,before I knew it,we had made an offer and the house became ours.
