How to buy a House
"It's good to be a home owner again."
How I did it: I started looking on realtor.com because I needed a cheaper area than where I lived. Fort Wayne was 2 hours south and much cheaper. Went to a mortgage company there and asked if I could get into a house with nothing down. He said yes and told me how much I qualified for. Came down for a day to view a lot of houses, found mine, made an offer. My agent handled the inspection and insurance quotes since I was out of state. It all went very well. I even have a porch swing.
Lessons & tips: Don't be talked into more than you can afford. Duh...that's why we are in an economic mess now.
Resources: realtor.com and my agent, couldn't have done it without them.
