Buying your first house

something not unlike this: http://www.mls.ca/PropertyDetails.a...RL=%3fAreaID%3d6321&Mode=0&PropertyID=4754343 is the kind of house in toon town that I'd want. But I don't plan on staying here (though I may move back eventually, it is a cute little city to raise kids in)

 

I don't want to seem insensitive but If you're willing to relocate to N.O.
there are plenty of home selling at dirt cheap prices

True story, even a few years ago when prices were a little better, a fixer upper in a not so great area of where I live would run you around 200.

 

We're working on buying our second home, and we will more than likely be paying around 100 grand, give or take, for what we want. It sure would be nice to pay less than that, but it's rare that you can find a house in a good area for much less than that around here, I swear. Plus we're looking for acreage, which doesn't come cheap.

Relocate? Absolutely. I have no problem with that.

I wish we could find the amount of land for what hippiehillbilly paid. That's awesome. I'm totally envious!

 

Are you looking primarily rural then? You should come up to canada, tons of cheap acerage around here.

 

Boy, I don't even want to start thinking of buying a home. Tooooo much commitment. Haha. How sad is that? I'm willing to get married, sign my life away (so to speak, lol), but buying a house is a huge commitment. I'm a wanderer, I don't figure I'll find the place I want to settle down in permanently for a looooooong time from now, so it'll be a long time before I even will allow myself to think about buying a house. It'll just depend on the cost of living in the particular area I settle down in and my income.

 

shane and i have been looking into buying a house and we found some pretty good deals around are area and in georgia. there's one where we pay 1500 and then take over the guys mortgage of 500 a month it was a really nice 3/2 with a pool but it's up to his mom if we move or not (she has to be relocated for her job and doctors and bla bla bla and see if she can afford to move.)

 

im looking to getting a condo for round 200k in the not so distant future
