    I bought a house!

    God help me, but I finally did it. I know I'm a ways behind the curve, but I'll be honest, I loved the flexibility of renting. That said, when I look back and see that 67500 dollars went to my landlord over the last 5 years I realized it was time to do it. That, and my landlord is selling my house, so he told me to GTF out.

    Anyhoo, it's nothing special but it's a good first house purchase. I've already got new appliances on order and will renovate the kitchen over the next year. That should boost the value of the house in an event I have to sell it unexpectedly.

            Congrats and there is something special about it - it's YOURS!

                  What HE said. Until you reach the day that you realize that there's not enough time to reap a return on any investment, and the NEXT folks that own the house will have to "do that"!

                    I'm too old to help you move... can I send my son?

                      Congratulations! I'm too far away to help, but I'm sure if there are BBOers nearby they will help. They did when I moved 6.5 years ago.
