As I stood there, I could remember the day we moved in like it was yesterday. The house had been so beautiful, so large, so new, and I couldn’t believe it was mine. The day we had signed the papers, my husband had given me a nervous look and I had known exactly what he was thinking. ‘Are we sure we can afford this?’ The same thought had been bouncing around in my head too, a nagging feeling weighing down the excitement of owning a new home. My husband and I both worked full time, but even with…

Our home of 26 years had needed a new bathroom since the 1994 Northridge quake. Far be it from us to act in haste. No we let it settle... for 13 years.

I’m trusting God to reveal blessings and show me what I can do for Him with…

Stagnate wages, hot real estate market, tighter mortgage rules and stock market abatement makes home buying for young families a distant dream. It used to be that if you managed your finances responsibly, saved for a down payment and established a good credit, then you could buy your first home and start a family. All that sounds like a fable in today 's economy. In California the median home was $305,000 in 2010 while in 2015 it was $475,000. That an increase of $170,000 or 55% over five years…
