Reply to comment by TeslaSaganTysonNye in Is it feasible to buy a house with 3 friends for my 4 years in college (or maybe longer)? by UltimatePlayer3301

I looked at the cost of places to rent in the area, and it looks like it would be about the same cost, meaning it would cost about the same as buying room and board at the college. By potentially buy a house, we would pay less than half.

Look up the "hidden costs" of owning a home. When you rent and the furnace goes out you call your landlord and they are obligated to restore heat in a timely manner. When the heat goes out in your house all of that is your headache and responsibility.

If one of you is able to get a mortgage alone it might be a better route
