haven’t gone through the pain of house-hunting for over a decade, but I still remember the X+1 problem. In my last search for a new home I had a hard price limit, determined by salary and savings, which meant there was zero point looking at properties above a certain budget. So why did I always find myself looking at houses just beyond?
