[QUOTE="brynm, post: 3430131, member: 566714"] Yeah we bought at a good time, housing here has gone through the roof. The house we just sold we had bought for 102 three years ago and we just sold it in three days for 177. As a comparison we looked at a place very similar to this one [URL="http://www.saskhouses.com/listing/detail/?listing_id=11092"]http://www.saskhouses.com/listing/detail/?listing_id=11092[/URL] about a year and a half ago for 250 now they want 410. We had done the big mortgage (big for hear anyway at 150) thing when we were making a combined 70k and just never seemed to have the money to do whatever we wanted, so we went into a smaller house. We got a great deal on the new house. I'm sorry if my last post offended, I hope everything turns out ok at your place. On a side note, I've heard down there you can amortize over 30 years (25 years here), and you can write off most of your mortgage payments for income tax purposes. Is this true? [/QUOTE]
