Sorry, I've been away for awhile. Very busy week, especially with my new job, i have to be at work at 6 am.
But... Today, we finally signed on the paperwork and closed on the house! I swear, I couldn't have gotten a better deal on this house if I tried. I grew up here, spent nearly 14 years of my life at this house. It's 5br/2.5ba, nearly 3500sq ft, overlooking the whole city, with woods all around the back. Natural stone foundation. All that for $33,740, paid monthly in $400 installments, for 7 years. No interest. I didn't have to pay closing costs. You cannot do much better than that.
Also, yesterday, I ordered my fiancee a Keith Urban guitar set, which includes the guitar (red/black acoustic electric), picks, strap, cleaning cloth, case,, chord chart and 30 DVD lessons. $300 for all that, you can't go wrong. She already plays viola, violin, and cello, so this should be pretty easy. She loves Keith Urban, so I had to. We saw him in concert last year. Hell of a guy.
So yeah, new job, house closed on, and another Christmas gift for the better half! Can't beat that. Plus, I should be getting that Infiniti I30 by march. It's still for sale. Here's hoping.

Man. I wish houses weren't so overvalued here. The previous townhome I lived in that was 23kms outside of town and unremarkable in everyway sold for like $120K. Damn you Canada, you expensive!
That's great you got the house you wanted. All the best with the little one and Merry Christmas man.

The median home price in my county is just below 300k. Womp Womp, guess who has to work really hard at a few different jobs to be able to buy one someday....

I'm so sick of the credit game. Makes me physically violent and ill.

A house of that size where I live would cost nearly a million.

No, just good luck in my case. A house half that size would cost maybe $65-70k. Just some stuff that worked in our favor.
