Debt vs. Buying a House

So, I went ahead and made the payment to our debt, rather than putting it into savings for a down payment. I feel good about doing it this way. As anxious as I am to get out of our studio and into a home, I know it's the right thing to wait. So, wait we will!

Hope you all have a nice weekend :)

  1. Great choice!

    Before you know it you'll be in your own home.

  2. Good for you! The feeling if being completely debt free is awesome and it will start your home owning experience off on a much better foot if you have no other debt besides a house payment.

  3. That's the right choice - you've come too far to stop now and add to your debt instead of getting it all paid off. Hang in there!

  4. I think you made the right choice. We did it the other way, but we had different circumstances. A house for 10 people plus utilities was actually more than mortgage, property taxes and utilities so it made sense for us. If it was still just me and my boys, I would still be renting too. You'll get there and it will feel awesome!!

  5. Think its important to pay off your debt first before getting yet another debt in the form of a mortgage
