Should You Buy a New Home Right Now?

September 25, 2012 | Leave a Comment

I just recently purchased my first home, so I’m intimately familiar with the stresses of making a mortgage payment. And it appears to be for good reason. Check out this chart I just found….

More than 40% of homeowners asked for help with their debt last year! That’s pretty scary!

And it definitely leaves me wondering…. Is this really a good time for people to be buying new homes? It’s obviously too late for me to rethink this decision, but I’m curious what the rest of you think. Is this a good time to be buying a home? Or is it simply too much risk right now?

Basic Principles Of Good Parenting

Here some basic principles for good parenting:

  1. What You Do Matters: Your kids are watching you. So, be purposeful about what you want to accomplish.
  2. You Can’t be Too Loving: Don’t replace love with material possessions, lowered expectations or leniency.
  3. Be Involved Your Kids Life: Arrange your priorities to focus on what your kid’s needs. Be there mentally and physically.
  4. Adapt Your Parenting: Children grow quickly, so keep pace with your child’s development.
  5. Establish and Set Rules: The rules you set for children will establish the rules they set for themselves later.  Avoid harsh discipline and be consistent.
  6. Explain Your Decisions: What is obvious to you may not be evident to your child. They don’t have the experience you do.
  7. Be Respectful To Your Child: How you treat your child is how they will treat others.  Be polite, respectful and make an effort to pay attention.
