One of the most talked about ongoing news stories during the last couple of years is the number of home owners that have had trouble making their mortgage payments due to over-extending their credit ability and lax lending practices. In the real estate industry this is called being house poor. There is one very simple way to avoid having trouble making your mortgage payment so you can enjoy your home to the fullest. Be responsible when making the decision on how much home to buy. During the process of putting your Wish List and Needs List together it’s important to consider your lifestyle and future plans so that your home fits into the overall plan and doesn’t become an unintended burden. Be practical in your assessment and strike a balance between what you can afford and the lifestyle activities you want to enjoy. Today’s housing market offers more home for less money making this goal easier to achieve.
