Our home, Our nest

TY and I bought a new house in Jan 2007. It is estimated to be completed by the end of this year and most probably we can get the key early 2008. Coincidently, our unit is A20-08. So easy to remember. Since both of us are very young, thus we don't have much savings. We paid the 10% down payment with the sponsorship from parents. We didn't think much about budget for renovations or furnitures. All we want is a house to be our home. Both of us have been living away from home for nearly 6 years. We think that we have had enough of renting of rooms. Renting a room will never make the house your home. Some may feel that it's not a very wise decision to get yourself in a 30-year debt at an early age. But our thinking is, houses are getting expensive day by day and saving of more down payment from our fixed salary is almost impossible. I personally feel that the prices of houses hike much more faster than my money-saving rate. We are so looking forward to moving into our new home eventhough the budget for simple renovations and basic furnitures is no where to be seen. Hahaha!!
