[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Wait. Have the little fucker first. See what your expenses really are. Then go look at buying. Kids hit your wallet in lots of ways - some obvious - some not. Don't add to the stress with an inflexible mortgage and a depleted savings account.[/quote] I agree with this completely, though I would probably phrase it differently! It is better to wait to make this type of financial commitment until you're settled into life as a new family. Risky financial decisions aside, what we're looking for now in a home/neighborhood/etc. is way different than I had expected. I'm glad we rented initially --- I didn't really know what would be important to me. [/quote]
