因为父亲的工作关系,我们家得搬到圣地亚哥去。父亲想要用租的,但是母亲坚持用买的。他们俩各有各的理由,于是就妥协为暂时买个新房子。不久,父亲发现货款利率一直在降低,而且不动产市场正值谷底,于是他改变了主意。

现在他们都同意用买的,所以父亲必须为新家而谨慎地寻找。开始时比较困难,因为我们当时是住在华盛顿州的西雅图。但在听了一个朋友的建议之后,父亲找了个21世纪房地产经纪人。从那之后,事情进展得顺利多了。

The ideal location was found, negotiated, and bought. Father chose a single story, twenty-five hundred square feet house on an eight thousand square feet lot. It has three bedrooms, two and a half bathrooms, and a garage with room for two cars.
理想的地点找到了,经过出价协商,最后成交了。父亲选的是单层的房子,占地8000平方英尺的土地,建筑面积是2500平方英尺。这房子有三个卧室,两个半的厕所,和一间可以停放两辆车的车库。

We hired a moving company to ship our belongings to the new address with a trailer truck. It was not a major flying home on vacations.
我们雇了一家搬家公司,他们用拖车把我们所有的物品都搬到新地址。这对我来说并没有太大的变化;我只需要在回家度假时改变飞机到达的目的地即可。
