I placed a bid on this house, ya'll. It has one HUGE bedroom and two tiny ones, two bathrooms, a basement, a great big attic, a HUGE livingroom, a nice sized eat-in kitchen, tall ceilings and I spied hardwood floors under the carpet (by checking the vents). The payments (if I go 30-yr) should be considerably less than my current rent. I'm so excited! (and scared out of my noggin)

That'd be pretty sweet. It would be nice to have a place to call your own.
Yay! Go for it.
They counteroffered and I accepted...
If the inspections all go ok, then I'M A FREAKIN HOME OWNER!!!
I'm excited and scared out of my noggin!
Wow lovely house of your own.
Exciting yes! :D
*looks at cards: full house* *chews cigar*
I'll see that offer, and make your first payment.. I call.
Wow, good job. Best of luck with the move and stuff. When's the house warming party? :D
So how much do properties like that cost, if you don't mind me asking? :) UK houses are damned expensive and I'm *thinking* of shifting somewhere... with a net connection so I can keep my job :)
Well, when moving that far you have to keep in mind that living expenses also vary by region, not just house-payments, but living expenses are probably quite low here. If you're keeping your job, via the web, then I suppose regional wage-variations wont affect you.
This house is less than $60,000.00 for a 30 year loan, which makes for payments of around $350.00 per month, which is less than renting most apartments. It's an old house, mind you, but it's in good shape and has a brand new roof. This is certainly very cheap for a house, even in this area, but I've seen several others in the same price range just recently.
Wow, thanks for the info, very much appreciated :D My housemate and I share a mortage on a house that was worth $160,000 5 years ago... it's only a 2 bed semi-detached bungalow but it's now worth something stupid like $360,000 - that's crazy UK property prices for ya! My half of the mortgage/bill payments are $800/month so $350 is really, really good... could live like a King for that...
So, do I sell up my share of the house and split with my equity...? Decisions, decisions...
Congrats, home owner :D
