We were hoping to buy a home, but after researching have decided to rent a property first, so we can get in and really learn the area's. We love Branson, but it seems very expensive and the traffic is terrible.

Does anyone know of any websites we can visit or realtors who can give us information on rental properties? We have good credit, but of course there is the issue if we buy of getting jobs first or letters of acceptance from prospective employers and so forth.

My husband is a gradall operator and i do medical billing. He has his own web design company.

Also can anyone tell me what the schools are like in Forsyth, Hollister, Kirbyville, Nixa? I have also researched homeschooling in Missouri as well.
Our children are 6 and 10.

Any advice or information is greatly appreciated. We are hoping to relocate sometime in July.

Thank You

Want to sell this house and get up north to see my daughters and grand children.
I need this so much I can taste it, how on earth do you find someone that wants to relocate to a family oriented community that is located in the middle of the OZARKS ?, most people have never heard of BRANSON never mind FORSYTH, MO

...I'm not sure who hasn't heard of Branson......but your best bet is to find a local realtor to help you put the word out about the property you're wanting to leave......because our local buyers are usually from out of the area and at least talking to a realtor or looking on realtor websites.

It's hard when you miss those young'uns...I know.

Best of luck, chipandgeo...
