Congrats! Seems like a lot of Piggs have found some affordable houses and the timing is right. We waited for like 7 or 8 years, reading blogs, thinking everyone was crazy, were proven right, and here we are.
We closed in December, too – 4.25 fixed w/o points, as we could have locked in 4.0 with a fee. That was the first week in November – we lucked out. One income, won’t grow out of it, etc. I fully expect prices to drop, but I cannot call bottom. Sometimes, you’ve just got to go for it if it works.

Congrats to those who bought. You have to consider rent vs. buy. And if buy works out then all the better.
I’m in Philadelphia part of my time. I bought over there because I could not rent anything decent. It’s an old city and everything there is old and musty. Big difference from Downtown San Diego where everything is brand new.
If buying is similar to rent and you get what you want, then it’s fine to buy.
