We Bought a House!

I know that over the last couple of years I have been one of the most ardent bears relative to the real estate market. But I want to share with the small handful of readers that I've got left that as dour as I have been, my family and I just took the plunge and bought a very nice house in Huntington Beach. Nice property, great location, saved hundreds of thousands by avoiding the peak...kids and the wife are very happy.

I may have bought before the bottom, I may have been slightly late. I may be making a great hedge against inflation, I may not be as well. At the end of the day, none of that really matters. I am just happy that I finally get to live in a house and in a neighborhood that I really like and for less than it would cost me to rent. What's not to like?
