Phone 293-7621 %ai G Estate By MARJORIE \V. CARMAN Gregory Sosa Agency OVER OR UNDER-SPENDING i Some people spend more than they can afford when buying a house. Equally painful is the mistake of buying the cheapest possible house and then suffering through its shortcomings. I have no intention of stating how much anyone can afford for a house. This is a very personal decision. There are guidelines of monthly averages that lending institutions use for housing expenses. But - like the \height/weight\ charts printed on scales • these are only averages. Don't hold back if you feel you can exceed the guidelines. When you are willing and sufficiently disciplined to economize on other expenses, you can get a better house than the average calls for. A good house may seem costly, but the rewards are well worth it. Investing in a house that's a little more expensive gives you an excellent inflation hedge while your whole family enjoys a better place to live. And often, the resale opportunity is brighter. If there is anything we can do to help you in the field of real estate, please call on the dependable people at the GREGORY SOSA AGENCY. 291 Conklin St., Phone 249- 0321.
