I just finished college last May, have my loans under control, financially stable, so I deem it important to try and fly the coop. My credit is about average if not more, and I have a pretty good amount in savings that will only increase as the year goes on. So as I'm searching for apartments, I think its crazy to pay $1300 + utilities for a one bedroom in a so-so neighborhood when I can pay a mortgage. I know a house is a lot more responsibility especially with taxes, maintenance, and other miscellaneous city fees. I'm going to take one of those house buying courses to get a more general idea. Has anyone made this step? How did it work out?
