I Want A House!

I hope I am not being naive when I say I want to buy a house. Other single people have bought houses. Why not me? Oh yeah, I have been in debt for most of my adult life. But not for too much longer! But I need to save money like no one's business. I want to buy a charming home, yet one I can afford. A bungalow? One of those log houses? A larger condo with a yard? I am hoping that is not what I will get. I would like a stand alone house, but we'll see what we will see.
