I need help making a decision. I have been saving and planning to buy my dream house, not a specific house mind you, just the house that will have exactly what I want and will be located in the town I want to retire. I'm a little more than a year from having enough saved for a 20% down, everything is going according to plan. Until...
This week while visiting the town where I am intent on retiring - I see it. My dream house. It is perfect, right down to the ocean view. It is also a great deal, not a steal, but a deal, very reasonably priced for the market. I could afford it now, if I decided to put less down. If I wait two years, I won't get THIS house. If I wait two years, another house is going to cost MORE, especially with the way the market is moving in this area. "They" are projecting 10% increase in property values this year, and even more with ocean front and/or ocean view props. I really love this house, can ya'll give me a reality check??
