I’m surprised the prices are that low up your way.

for around 225 you can get a nice house (built in the 60's but updated)

i just do not like owing money on things. as soon as my utilities are due i pay them ASAP.

i want to get about 60-70K saved up as a downpayment. get a 30 year mortgage and then make about 6 extra payments a year towards the principal and get it paid down faster

Is there a rampant meth problem in your town, peeps?

I definitely relate. The only reason I’m not paying my car off early is 0% interest and wanting to hold back money for a potential home down payment

If you think you'll be able to afford that many extra payments, maybe you can just get a 15 year mortgage and a better interest rate

no more than other areas. you hear about it but dont see too much of it

it was told to me that if you can make the extra payments at 30 it is better because the rates are a little lower on a 30 year than a 15 but i could have been told incorrectly

I'm sure I'll say something immature elsewhere to cancel it out.

this is the house i initially was looking into. i may just inquire about it

[bodysnatcher]

Is that room carpeted head to toe???

[Peeps]

I think it’s just kind of like the attic but is considered one of the bedrooms. The kitchen floor is meh but for 150 what can you really ask for

[bart]

The carpet room, while clearly the work of a lunatic, would be good for movies and music

Landscaping is a hidden cost.

ah yes, the purrfect place for all that hair and dander to collect.

[Chris_H_2]

cats suck so badly

[doug rr]

but they could walk on the ceiling while you listen to Floyd and drink

there were some large trees they had removed which makes the natural light a bit better in the place
