Default Re: BRAG: Just got approved for a home mortgage

Isn't there still more downside to the market though? With all the ARM's about to expire, there may be sweet foreclosures though.

This is actually a really good time to buy. Interest rates are still climbing and LOTS of houses are being foreclosed or have been on the market for a long time. Pretty much anything under 250k is having a really tough time selling in my area. This equates to dropping prices along with the ability to lowball and have the seller pay closing costs.

WOW, where do you live? Because I'd like to move there.

I'm looking at the western suburbs of Minneapolis. Houses just aren't moving and people don't want to pay 2 mortgages, hence the dropping prices and foreclosures.

I also got a sweet deal because of how much I'm putting down along with my credit score, credit history and little to no debt.
