Can't stand having my TV up that high. Can't do fireplacr...although it's a good use of space.

I have 30 year mortgage. If you pay an extra payment a year you knock like 7 years off... 100k loan...700 a month... 700 extra towards principle per year times 23 years is 16,100. It's amazing what you pay in taxes at first.

i paid 96k for my hud home...needed work. Still needs some, but the home is 2200 square feet and the average home around my neighborhood is 150k and 1500 square feet. I've put about 10 ggrand into it and should be able to sell it for 180kish, theoretically 220k but I doubt it...lose so much money renting.
