well, i have been thinking about buying a house for a while, and now that im in a position too, im not positive that i want too.
at first, ive heard insurance is around a thousand, and property taxes where i was looking are around 2500, but where i am looking now property taxes are on the low side around 4000, and the average 5-6000, and on the high side 10000.
do house normaly appreciate in value more than that? like 7000 dollars per year on a 300k dollar house? i was looking at putting in around 200k and financing around 50k, but maybe i should dump around 6000 a year in rent, and look for some other way to invest 200-220k of cash?
