Default Save for a house? Or buy a smaller house and hope it appreciates?

My fiance and I are getting married at the end of 2009. Does it makes sense to buy a small house to start off ($150,000), or wait about two years and save up to buy one that is around $275,000?

My friends are all buying houses and it makes me so sad.

But I know I am in a a great situation bc I pay very low rent at my dad's house and he is inviting us to live there for 2 years after we are married.

I guess I'm just jealous. At least I can admit it.
