Homeowner - resolved

My Dad was really movin' on the whole house thing, and called me at work 2 days after mentioning the idea. He'd already spoken with my aunt's brother-in-law about the house, and with my uncle, and 2 things came out of those conversations. A) my uncle made it apparent that the house is in quite a shade of disrepair, and B) my aunt's family would probably try to screw me out of the sweet deal my family wanted to offer me.
Matt and I talked about it for 2 days, and we not only don't have the money for a downpayment, but with both of us in school, we also don't have the time or motivation to renovate a house right now. Particularly one in an area of town in which neither of us wishes to live.
So, there you have it. Apartment living is the life for me!
