So I've recently transfered from a Starbucks located 3 miles from my house to one that's a 30-45 minute commute. It was my choice to move locations, based on issues I was having at my old store. But the drive from home is definately going to be an issue.
Michael and I have talked about moving in together for a while, and we even found a home that we are already in love with. It's a HUD home though, and neither of us have really any knowledge on what they are or how we could go about getting it. I've never had to deal with getting a loan or a mortgage or anything real estate related, and I want to have some idea of what I'm delving into. So my question is; What advice can you give me on being prepared? Who should I contact? Should I apply for a loan through my credit union? What makes a HUD home different from regular homes?
I'm so lost...
