I was in my late 20s and had the money, I even took a homebuying course..and yet was afraid to pull the trigger. It's tough when you're single and don't have any family to counsel you either....I feel like if I had had even one person to ask "hey, is this a good idea?", I would have done it. Sadly, no reddit to ask back then either. It sucks that I STILL don't have anyone to talk to about this but reddit.

To be fair, sounds better than graduating college and starting your adult working life in the worst recession since the Great Depression

That was NOT fun trying to start a career back then.
