So if you are addicted to HGTV like Mrs. Fishy Lady and I you know what I am talking about when I say "House Hunters". It used to be one of our favorite shows, but as you know if you've bought a house before that buying a house just isn't as easy as picking house number 1, 2 or 3. It's not about whether you like the ranch style or not. The real question is can I fix all the repairs? Sure we can make the monthly payments (another trap of deception as there are many monthly payments within your monthly house payment, like PMI, taxes, etc), but you clear out another whole lot of trees and level the backyard? Sure, when we hit the lottery, but who really wants to pay rent when you can pay mortgage and (hopefully) make some money in 5-10 years?
I wish there was some class offered in college on buying a house, hey even in seminary. I know there are free-mortgage classes, but in our town those are only for folk who barely make enough money to buy a shack.
So hopefully my next post will be good news about the house, but now it seems like who wants all the headaches.
