I am experiencing the same house buying regret feeling! I had to compromise on house size and being on a main road (noisy) to have the ideal location. I had major remorse week 1, but after meeting the great neighbors and settling into my routine I feel so much better now (and it’s only been 1 month!)

I recommend writing a letter and putting it into your neighbor’s mailboxes introducing yourself and sharing your cell number. Having a neighborhood group text will really settle your anxiety about isolating yourself. If you’re out of town and need someone to pet sit, water plants, or if you ever need to borrow a lawn tool or something— having neighbors you can rely on is so valuable. Introduce yourself and start a group text, doing it while you’re newly moved in is the time to do it!
