					<description><![CDATA[One of the many reasons that I&#039;d never buy a house without first paying off ALL of my debt, saving a 20% down payment, and still having lots of cash leftover in the bank.  Owning is more expensive than renting in the short- and middle-term, even when owning seems cheaper at first just based on monthly payments.  A house equals a constant list of things to fix and improve that one can&#039;t call a landlord about.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Great advice to keep some $$$ for repairs.  You&#039;re right that things pop up that you might not find in the inspection.

We replaced our HVAC unit about a year after we moved in since it was  about 30 years old.  We decided to get it done before it broke completely in the dead of winter or summer.  But, we discovered that our outside unit no longer made the building codes since the deck was built over the unit.  So, we had to pay for the supply lines to be moved around to the side of the house.  This was an extra $2000 or so over the cost of the unit.  We could afford it, but it was semi annoying to have to fix something &quot;extra.&quot;]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[I hear you! Our house was built in the 70s as well and has need some upkeep. We&#039;ve lived there a little over a year and have already put on a new roof and been told we need a new air conditioning unit. I know the a/c unit is true, but we are trying to make it one more (very hot) summer on it!]]></description>
