ParticipantHow much are you currently paying in rent. Do you make 4500 or take home 4500, big difference, at least for me(making 5200, taking home 3000). Check out Zillow’s rent estimate vs. zestimate. If you can find a place that you qualify for, where PITI is near what you are paying for rent or even a few hundred more then I would definitely give it a try. Your FICO seems low to me, I think that is the lowest FICO that you can get a mortgage with. You do not mention how much you have in savings. I think Suzy Orman would deny you, but I personally think it is a good time to buy. I know renters and landlords don’t like to invest in their places, but as a “homeowner” it will probably be your strongest urge after “buying”.

Admittedly economic stability does not seem eminent, and the even bigger question is when selling gold where do you put the money? Wish I knew the answer to that one. Just seems to me that gold is following a bubble path. Bloomberg said the middle east OPEC countries are investing heavily in solar. Seems like a smart way to hedge the energy market and given their latitude I think they can implement it there no problem.

Gold will probably hit 1500 in the middle of May, unless everyone reads this that is. My predictions usually come true though admittedly my timing is way off, I guess I’m ahead of my time. By the way BAC is @ 13.47 today, so I guess that would have been a better buy, but I don’t like buying companies I don’t like.

ParticipantJust to clear the air, I have no idea if any of these properties are listed on the MLS or not as I’m not a realtor. One of the houses,which I would buy if I didn’t already have a home, Ive seen the sign disappear for a few days and I figured it finally sold since it was on the market so long, then low and behold another realtor sign pops up, once again with no listing. I just think it is strange!
