Dont force it. The decision should come easily and feel right. If you force yourself to make a decision then you risk making a mistake.
Maybe because it looks like an either 'buy now, or buy in 2 yrs' deal that has you anxious. If you shorten it to 'buy in 6 months or buy in 1 year,' then you will be giving yourself 6 months of relief from this exhaustive uncertainty.
I stand by my prior posting that you will be spending alot of $$ that could go to a savings account and earn interest to get into this house. And it might slow you down (from getting in your cape) in the long run.
I also suggest that you wait for your fiances benefit. It's his first home too. I would think he would want to go through the process with you, of house hunting, moving in, decorating. You said he goes to school 5 hrs away, so he doesnt get to share with you in your first year of homeownership!
And since he does not have a job yet, you guys are limiting his job options before he's graduated.
But feel free to keep proving me with homes to look at, I find it great fun to help people to spend their money.
