Buying property is not something to do on a whim. No matter whether you are buying a house to live in, a condo to rent out or even a piece of land just to keep you can sure of one thing, it is going to cost real money. You are not going to be spending $100, the chances are you will be spending tens, or hundreds, of thousands of dollars. Spending thousands of dollars is not something that I take lightly and nor should you.

I have heard it said that people decide if they want to buy the house they are looking at within the first 45 seconds. You get a picture of how your car will look in the driveway, how your kids will appear when they play in the yard. This emotional reaction can be a huge problem. You fall in love with a house and then you feel you have to have it. This will often allow you to give in over things that you shouldn't. A home is for life, but so is a mortgage, paying every month for a home that has become a money pit is no fun.
Try and thing all the angles of your life and how this house will intertwine with it before you fall in love. Do you have teenage kids who will be driving soon, if so does the house have enough room in the driveway for the extra car (or two) that you will have soon.
With the economy the way it is you could well be living in this home for a long time so it is a good idea to be sure that the house suits your needs not just now but for the future.
As well as thinking about your families future growth (or shrinkage) you should be thinking about the price they are asking, Just because the home is advertised as a foreclosure or a short sale it doesnt mean you are getting a bargain. No one else will be as interested as you are in making sure that you get a home you not only love but can afford. It is good to take advice from others, but make sure that the final decision on buying a home is one you are happy with.
