We got the house!! Closed yesterday and am now diving head first into the fun of home ownership. Painting and yard work have begun...
I still can't believe that we own a house

Congrats bro!! This is the time to buy. And especially with where you're living, once the market recovers you'll stand to turn a nice profit.

Congrats, that's very cool! I agree, this seems to be a really good time to buy. And yes, we'll be needing pics at some point.

For once, I agree with username.

Congrats on living the American dream: debt.

When it's paid for, you no longer have to pay rent. Just taxes. And maintenance.

Congrats and good luck!

I'm just a tad past the half way mark on my mortgage. Oh, the memories. The repairs, the projects. Maintenance! The F'n bills,.......taxes.....ahhhhhhhh. Mow the grass, mow the grass, mow the grass.........bushes, shrubs, fertilizers! O-M-G!!! Kid, run now while you still have a chance! I know a guy who can get you a new identity. It will be cheaper in the long run.

So now you're living in sin again - as in in debt.




Just kidding.

Congratulations, and may you enjoy your new home.

You think that is bad? I could easily drop $10,000 doing stuff around my place that needs to be done and I have a well maintained house. Be glad that it is only $500 in paint, probably the cheapest thing you are going to do to the house; ever.
