My biggest question is why you would be looking to buy a house? If a small cut back in your hours would make that much of a difference, you haven't been paying attention to the world around us. You are obviously living outside your means as it is. You should always be putting away money for a rainy day, your retirement, your 3 kids college fund...If your financial situation can be rocked by a few hours, hold off on the house. - Tue Jul 7 2009, 11:07

I don't have an answer for you ~ but, we're in the same boat as you and if you wouldn't mind me asking ~ what mortgage company are you dealing with? We're Wells Fargo... - Wed Jan 21 2009, 16:43

We are not currently being foreclosed on, I just am not getting any other options. My fiance owns this house and it has only his name on it. We live in my house, with only my name on it. We cannot afford to make the house payment on that house. Obviously, because we were 3 months into a short sale, I am exploring all of our options. They backed out. Done deal. Do we need to wait another 6 months to get an offer, 3 months for the short sale to go through, and then still be told we need to come up with $5000! - Fri Oct 3 2008, 08:20
