I was 27
Cost $78k, 20% down.
Yes, I would buy differently now. - Don't buy to be as close to work as possible and to be as cheap as possible. Don't buy in a flood zone. Also don't buy near a sewer plant and where there will be a road put in right behind the house. Jeez I was a dumbass on that purchase but I did learn a lot.
