27 years old..paid 174k
Put down 18k
Not sure about doing things different but I have regrets.. After Katrina, the house went up in a value to 240k over night. Considered selling but we couldn't find anything. The value held and grew to a peak of probably 260 or so based on comps but we missed on a couple of houses and decided to add on and remodel. I am now in a unkown position..great neighborhood, great location but not sure if I can get what I would like due to size versus the neighbors. Knowing that I will be here for atleast 4-5 more years eases that worry.
