Indeed, yes. There's a special feeling about first becoming a homeowner -- as you lie awake at night thinking, "What have I done?!" Fortunately, you should quickly get over that phase....

When my mother passed away in February I inherited the house I grew up in. Along with all the headaches my dad left behind when she divorced him. 6 weeks later I'm still treading water and actually considering calling my last employer and thanking him for firing me.

From homeless to homeowner..What BA went through a while back happened to me at the same point of my life. Took me 20 years to reach this point in time, but better let than never.
My realtor told me that I bought at the right time. D.C. Has people flocking in. 800K folks as of last year and rising. And D.C is a small state to begin with. Heck one congressman said D.C. Should have a recession. The neighborhood I bought in shows signs of gentrifying. Give it another 5-10 years and real estate prices will be as high as San Franciso. Maybe sooner.
