I liked pigsknuckle, although I don’t live there. Never any traffic and everybody is nice. And you’re close to livesteam and his lemon Budweiser beer (blech)

We bought our house back in 2012 really before we were expecting right before we got married. We were looking at apartments and quickly realized nice ones we liked were way too expensive to just be flushing money down the toilet. And at that time the market was very favorable to buyers. The house we bought in a great neighborhood was on the market for three months. It had its price lowered at least two times by the time we saw it. And there were plenty of houses around back then with similar scenarios. We knew would we end up overextending ourselves a bit to get the house since we didn’t have a 20% down payment but it has definitely been worth it and we knew it’s value would rise eventually, though how quickly has been surprising.
Our next door neighbors (twice now) had a similar experience others have described when they moved in a two years ago. They had to offer over asking on the first day. The people who bought it before them like four years back did the same but still managed to make money when they sold it to our current neighbors. It was like four years ago the house sold for 60k more than we paid and our current neighbors paid 100k more than us. And the houses are basically the same. It’s just crazy how fast the prices have risen. So we had to pay PMI for a while and high interest but after we were ready to refinance we now pay only $100 more per month, got rid of PMI and pay more to principal than interest each month now with the 18 year standard loan we got on. So for us buying the house was pretty fun and exciting and relatively easy. It just sounds exhausting to try to but right now though. |

It's not like it's terrible, housing is cheap, but the taxes are oppressive. And the summers are miserable. And I've already ridden every bike trail within a 200 mile radius. It was ok for the first 50 years but I'm kinda running out of reasons to stay here. |

That's if you have the 5% to apply for conventional, if you have to go FHA that doesn't ever go away. I'm currently paying PMI until I get my other house on the market and sell it. Then I can recast the loan and it will drop off. I don't like paying it for a couple months, can't imagine paying it for years.
