I’ve always thought buying would be better then renting. But there are so many things I do not understand about actually buying a house it’s funny. I understand talking to a mortgage broke would help alot. But money is another thing that concerns me. I only have about 3,000 saved up now, with the expectation of 5,000 by April to move out. If I tried to buy a house, all of that would have to go towards a dowpayment unless I can work something out. Have any suggestions on sites to read up on this or someone to talk to?
