Congrats. Hopefully you were able to take full advantage of current interest rates.

I've been in my first home almost a year now and I'm loving every minute of it.

No it's not. It's about right for a 3/2/2 w/ a pool. What did you pay for yours and what's the layout?

yeah 110k is actually pretty good for a house with a pool. Mine is 1611 sq ft and was built in '98. I paid 117k. It appraised for 127K.
