tinker,
w'dya mean i'll find something else?

@kevyeoh,
I mean, who knows U won't find another house which is more ideal?

lol

if keep thinking that there is a better located, nicer maintained, better renovated, larger house for price range you allocate, then forever searching.

So long as it was well kept, well located (not near dump site or something lol) and a size your comfortable with (single, couple, family all need different size) which you are able to afford even at worst economic times (must think about that!) then get it. Timing the market is very hard and uncertain.

It is like a young girl who keeps thinking, must be better man out there who will marry me despite nice guys who would make good husband asking for her hand. Eventually, end up old spinster.

Just remember that so long as the house is in your budget and suits you, you have to live in it after all, then by all means, buy. Otherwise, rent your home for the time being while you search.
