ready to buy our home :)

we’re looking for a mid size bus 30ft, flat nose, engine in the front. we live in choctaw ok & we haven’t really found any buses in our area. are there any specific sites that you all have found ur skoolies? we also don’t mind catching a flight and driving it back home! if you guys see any that fit what we’re looking for please don’t hesitate to link them, definitely trust your judgment

I used the NC School Systems surplus site. Horribly designed but up to date and some decent prices.
They don't have much information, but they do list if the bus has problems running/driving and give you the VIN, which you can use on most to figure out the full make, model, engine, and a few other details.

I'd look for something in your area where buses seldom have list issues than somewhere like NC. Use the search bar and search "places to buy a bus"
Most of us watch the CL, and the auctions, but the best deals will be at the auctions like Govdeals.com, Publicsurplus.com, purple wave.com, you'll find more info when you do the search.
Welcome to the madness.
