I'll Never Get To Walk Inside Of A House That Cost More Than $1 Million Dollars Unless I Go To An Event

Today, I talked to two realtors about a $3 million dollar home in my hometown. There are alot of million dollar homes in my hometown. I had put in several inquiries for million dollar homes around the area. I know that I can't afford one, but I just want to walk through one. I've never been inside of a million dollar home before. I've been living in the trenches all of my life. I put the million dollar house tour on my bucket list.
After talking to the realtors, they informed me that realtors typically do not give tours for houses over 1 million dollars unless they make sure you are qualified first. I know nothing about real estate whatsoever. I have never purchased a home. The fact that I couldn't tour a million dollar or more home wasn't the answer that I wanted to hear but then it hit me- I'll never be able to see the inside of a million dollar home.
Both realtors gave me the same advice- that I needed to get rid of my credit cards and raise my credit score before I call them back. It was extremely embarrassing that I asked them about seeing the house, but they were nice enough to understand my situation. I felt crazy and I felt like a lunatic but I asked the question that I wanted to ask and got the answer that I needed to hear.
One of the realtors were able to give me information about an open house this weekend for two houses that were both around $650,000 each. I'm not going to go to view those. I found a open house for a 1 million dollar house and another for 1.2 million, but both properties are not in my hometown. I decided that I'm going to try to go, but if I cant make it, I won't trip. I really don't feel like driving an hour away to look at those million dollar homes but I need the motivation and inspiration.
When I was a kid I went on a luxury Homearama house tour in my hometown with my mean mother but I forgot what the experience was like because it was over 20 years ago. I'm kind of traumatized by the experience and I don't really wanna talk about it.
I decided that I'm going to try to take another trip down memory lane for the Homearama experience later this fall, which is a long time from now. This time it won't be in my hometown and this time I'm going alone as an adult- not with my mother. I'm going to another city. I'm not sure how much the houses are going to be worth but while I'm there I will find out. The tickets I think are around $100 but I'm going to find that out too. They are supposed to have food, alcohol, drinks, music, etcetera.
Although I'm an introvert, this is my chance to blend in with country club socialites, while touring luxury homes. It's the only option I have if I want to see a million dollar house that bad. The houses may be priced at a million dollars or more, or they may be under that. Seeing the 1 million dollar or multi million dollar house in the flesh is the primary goal. I want to walk through one at least twice before I die.
