I would buy our first family home which was the first home my parents ever bought. It is in a small-ish country town and I loved living there, it was on a big block, 3 bedrooms, 2 living areas, it seemed big at the time. I was 7 when I moved, we moved to another country town but I did not like this house at all. The first house is the only one that I would conside buying, I wonder if it was because I was so young and things seemed so simple back then?
No...
but i will inherit it when they die(well half of it)
although i will sell my half to my sister.
then i wont have to deal with all the crap thats in it...
my parents have been in the same house for over 30 yrs
I would. The house I spent most of my childhood in was a great house. Mum and Dad had it built when I was 4 and it has 4 decent bedrooms and 2 living areas, and no high cupboards!! The pantry is HUGE and I dont have any really bad memories there. Dad is a big fan of sheds, so there is a double garage, plus a 2 car shed, plus a garden shed, but there isn't much lawn area. It also has a lovely slow combustion fire which is mesmerising!! It is now owned by the SA government so it might take a fair while for it to come on the market again.
The first home I ever lived in I don't remember, but I couldn't buy it because it was pulled down and turned into FOURTEEN units!!! OK, it was a 1 acre block, but still . . . I think that's a bit extreme!
I'm living in my childhood home!(inherited to me by my mum) Its a good house and if we could move it to a different location it'd be even better. Having said that though we are moving soon and will probably sell it for the first time which is kinda sad.
we inherited DH's family home (and the mortgage that goes with it!) when DH's brother passed away just after we got engaged. his parents built it early 1980's - the old house on this block had been here for a couple of generations - so DH has only ever lived here in one of the two houses. it's hard trying to (still) clean out the crap that was accumulated, but i love it here!
No not our house, but I'd love to buy my nans house. It's an old war home and I would love to buy it and renovate it. It has such a homely feel to it and anyone who walks in there often say they feel instantly at home. Though the area leaves a bit to be desired....
