We bought the first house we ever looked at! We weren't planning on buying for another year, but we were watching the market, driving around neighborhoods we liked etc. The price on our house kept dropping... got to a point where we had to make a move even if we weren't quite where we wanted to be financially. We LOVE our house.
Tshabet, hat kind of problems did you have on closing?
UconnTim97, when is the inspection? It is great if you can be there when they do it. I had to negotiate that with our house inspector, he was hesitant but it made me feel much more comfortable.
When my brother's house was "inspected", they didn't check out the basement because "everything looks pretty good". Missed knob & tube wiring, botched plumbing and a furnace that hadn't been serviced in 5 years.
