I WOULD WELCOME IDEAS AS TO SPECIFIC PLACES I COULD SEARCH ON REAL ESTATE FORUMS OR THE NAME OF A GOOD AGENT, SINCE WEI HAVE NEVER BEEN TO THE AREA I DO NOT KNOW WHAT CITIES AND TOWNS THAT MEET MY SPECIFICATIONS. FAMILY IS A MARRIED COUPLE IN THEIR EARLY 30s AND A RETIRED RELATIVE. RELATIVE TRAVELS ALOT. ONE KITCHEN IS FINE, BUT HE NEED SMALL PRIVATE ROOM WITH HIS OWN BATH AND WORK AREA/GARAGE OR WORK AREA TO LIVE IN WHEN HE IS HOME. COUPLE HAS EXCELLENT CREDIT AND TWO ELDERLY DOGS. COUPLES HUSBAND IS EMPLOYED WITH GOOD CREDIT AND BOTH ARE COLLEGE GRADUATE PROFESSIONAL PEOPLE. NOT SECION 8. POSSIBLE COMMUTE TIME COULD BE 1 1/2 HOURS FROM HARRISBURG BUT PREFER NO MORE THAN 1 HOUR. TRAVELING RELATIVE IS A VIETNAM ERA VETERAN WHO IS DISABLED. PLEASE RESPOND VIA THIS FORUM AND I WILL REPLY WITH MY EMAIL ADDRESS.
