confusedI ask that question because I do want to move to a place were instead of paying rent we would pay to own the place. I have lived in the same city for over 20 years or so we have moved but always around the same neighbor hood and I think that a big change might be good for us but I am scared. I hardly ever visit my family that lives in this city and most of the time I am at home with my kids. So I don’t think that I am going to miss being with family and friend but I am scared of the change because I don’t know what to expect. We are not 100% sure that we are going to be able to move to Prescott Arizona because we need to talk to the owner of the house to see if she want to sale to us or rent and like I said I want to buy. I don’t know how it is there or how the house looks but I know that the weather is much nicer there today the weather is 100 F hear in Phoenix and in Prescott it is 82 F so there is a big difference. I also hear that in winter it snows there and hear it those not. I am really confused right now because I am exited, nervous, happy, anxious, and sad but everything is all mixed up so I don’t know what to do.

Well I know I have to wait to see what is going to happen with the lady and to see if we might afford it to move and obviously we have to go to her house and see how it is. But I do wish that we are going to be able top move especially if it is as nice as my husband told me the house was. Also it is good if she those want to sell to us instead of going true a bank it will be with her so we wont have to go true all the paper work and having to risk the possibility of getting rejected.
Any words of encouragement will help at this moment and also any comments about what to do and expect and what ever come to your mind. happy

I moved from New York to New Mexico. I first checked online to see what I needed to know about New Mexico. From weather, jobs, housing. I had all my stuff packed by a company that then packed the truck and drove my stuff too New Mexico and it took a week. I then flew to New Mexico with my dog. It was a process that started by selling my house then hiring a reliable moving company. Moving is one of the most stressful thing to do. Your move would be nothing compared to my move. Are you ok with living somewhere that it snows. If you are moving because of a job then its probably quite worth it at this time, since jobs are hard to come by. I made a list of everything I had to do step by step. The best move is when its all organized and if the family is all on the same page. You will all need to work together to make it a successful move. If you don't like the house how about New Mexico I want to sell my house and go to Puerto Rico. In New Mexico we get very little snow. In fact I have been here for 2 years and have never shoveled. Interested? lolGood luck to you in your decision.

I am pretty sure that when we move it is not going to be as easy because I have a 11 year old and 1 year old two big dogs and in total we are 6 counting the dogs. I have many reason to move but the main two are one that my husband is working with a friend that lives in Prescott but those work all over Arizona and some times out of state and I thought that it might be better to move closer to him so they can carpool. I am currently not working and so far I have not been able to get a job hear and hopefully I can get a job there doing anything that is good and honest. The second reason is that we currently rent a house but the owner is my mom and she, my dad and my sister come to the house when ever they want and that is good but then they would have people come over to eat or stay and that I don’t really like. Also one of my uncles form my moms side is currently staying in the small studio that my mom has in the back but he is not working so he eats whit us and he those not pay for anything. There are also times that a family member or two might call my mom and ask if they can stay at her house and she would say yes with out even asking so I have to take them in and they also do not help with anything. We are having problems paying the bills and to have people just come over and make the utility bills get bigger and the fringe emptier with out helping is just really annoying. I just want some privacy and to be less stress since I am the one that worries about the bills and what we might have to eat since my husband is a person that cares but he just lives everything that has to do with the house to me. And thank you for your offered but like I said one of the main reasons is because of my husband job.

I thought it had to do with a job. I know about people staying in the house and not contributing to the utilities or food bill. Its is quite annoying especially since I don't have a job and I get so worried myself about paying the bills and making sure they are paid on time. Just remember organization is the best way to go when planning a move. I want to wish you all the luck in the world.

It is very costly when you stat to own. When you rent the landlord usually takes cae of repairs etc. When you own not only do you have your house payments and utulities but most states require you to have home owners insurance and most states hav a real estate tax at the end of every year so make sure you have a minimum of 10k put aside for emergencies AFTER your down payment if you decide to buy. Put enough money down that your paymnent are no more than 20% of your take home pay. Every month save save save or you will be in trouble.

Thank you for that information it is really helpful I will write it in my note book so I can always remember. The main reason that I want to buy is because at the end we have something and when you rent you don’t end up with a single thing. But I guess that the only way we might get out from this house is to rent because I don’t want to be hear more than a few months I am so stressed of living in this house that I need to either have my own place or at least rent a place that is far form this house. happy
