Single woman

Thanks for the guest post by Esteban Vinson

As a single woman buying my first home, one of the first things I am going to do is install a home security system from one of the adt packages. I only think it makes sense because of my situation. I am truly excited about the opportunity to be a homeowner. I have spent the last three years in a sales position for my company, and I received a promotion into a lower management position about six months ago. This requires more responsibility but far less traveling, and the increase in salary and more time in town were the determining factors for me buying a home. I am going to keep my current roommate, who will pay rent to me. The way the housing market is right now, I am getting a great deal on a home that I absolutely love. After my father saw the house, he could hardly believe what I paid for it. I think my biggest adjustment is going to be dealing with my lawn. I never had to do any lawn work living in an apartment complex, and I never did lawn work growing up. That is a small price to pay for home ownership.
