How long does it typically take to buy a house? & what’s the process ?
It took us 45 days to close. We got pre-approved first and then looked.
It took us about 2 months from the time we started until we closed. We did a USDA loan, though and those take longer.
Get pre-approved first. Find a real estate agent after. The actual buying process varies so much. I've heard of people closing and moving within 30 days. Personally for me the closing process always takes months.

IUI Monday!!
So today I went in for my routine bloodwork and ultrasound, and found out that I have three follicles at 17mm! Plus another two at 15mm. When leaving the clinic my FS said to take another dose of gonal-f and come back tomorrow to check to see how big they got and that we would do the iui on Wednesday. Well, after getting home, taking my gonal-f and going out to shovel snow (lol) I get a call saying that I am SURGING!!! I haven't ovulated on my own, or even come close to it in years...
