Hey guys, I know it's a bit off topic, but I wanted to share my wonderful news. After years of renting, We have finally bought our first house...Tonight is the first night in it...It is so wonderful. I never thought I'd see the day when we would finally be able to afford it instead of renting all the time!!! Owning your own home is the best!!![This message has been edited by HouseDadX4 (edited July 31, 2004).] |

Congrats! I remember when we first moved into our house. It felt like it took a week to walk from one end of the house to the other. And, I finally had a room to put my collection! |

Congratulations!! There's nothing like owning your own home ... especially when you get to write it off the interest payments next year!!I don't know how first time homeowners can afford it ... particularly in my neck of the woods, New England. The price of housing has gotten out of sight. Enjoy it and all best wishes to you and your family!! [This message has been edited by Dan Lorraine (edited July 31, 2004).] |

From the British side- we would like to offer our congrats to Mum, Dad, and the 4 Juniors-its so nice to have your own house. Mine is an old Victorian-solid stone type- built in the 18 hundred-or near-our family have had some very happy memories throughout the years- and I sincerely hope you and yours do-all the very best Housedad x 4-[Do the 4 have their own room?] Children make a house- so cosy in my view. from Brenda in the land of Fairies.

Congratulations! My wife and I got our first one not all that long ago. I have read where financial experts say that getting a home is the single best thing someone can do to improve their personal finances. Besides, apartments have gotten so darned expensive that house payments are now less in many cases. I am very happy for you! |
