  - Are brokers required/common? -- nm - ty97 Oct 19, 11:37 9
    - Required no, common I don't know. It all depends on whether you can afford them. You will see better place with a broker then you would find - Krusty Oct 19, 11:42 8
      - This is my thing: If I ever took the plunge, i don't have the money to pay a broker. - ty97 Oct 19, 11:43 7
        
        You'll be able to do searches on your own and if your price range is high enough you won't have much trouble finding a good place. - Krusty Oct 19, 11:48 5
