You must know by now that I’m a major worrier, too. Funny what you wrote about weddings/xmas, etc. when house-hunting. When we tour houses, I consider whether or not we can live in it with a wheelchair when we get old, and how quickly EMS can get to us, and where the nearest hospital is…we’re 40 years old, and perfectly healthy.
I’ve been a RE bear since 2001, and still think prices have a way to fall.
That being said, if we found our ultimate dream home tomorrow, we’d buy it in an instant IF we could easily afford it, and IF we were pretty secure about our income, etc.
If your finances are solid, and you can still easily live without debt and still accumulate savings after you buy this house, go for it, Scaredy!!!!
Please let us know how it goes. I’m excited for you! 🙂
