About to buy but is it the right thing to do?

Hi Lizzy,

not that i know a great deal about all things financial but just to give u a comaprison, i am currently buying a property and after al my outgoing go out, this includes food petrol and putting money away every month for car and presents etc, i will have £50 a week to live on for leisure, i too posted here and got lots of negative comments about buying but in your hearts of hearts if u really wnt to get on the property (as i do) then go for it, if your not planning to move for some time once u buy then if house prices drop u can just sit tight x

well, we bought the house and i can honestly say i know we have done the right thing !! even if it means budgeting, scrimping and saving in the years ahead and not having as much cash over per month, its a nice feeling to be in a house we are buying and can do what we want with ! even if house prices drop off a bit, i still feel happy with the decision we have made :-D

Well done and good for you! If it feels right for you then and it's somewhere you're going to be happy for quite a few years, how can it be wrong eh.

And now for the babies or at least the fun of trying

Of course buying was the right thing to do, especially if you want to have children. Most landlord's run a mile from children, and not to mention puppies, kittens, hamsters etc.....all the pets that kiddies usually want. Congratulations on your purchase.
