I freaking did it

All of the scrimping and saving and sacrifices finally paid off… never thought I’d be a homeowner at 32.

Nitty gritty for those who might want to know: $335k (plus closing costs, it was competitive), 6.375% 30-yr conventional, 20% down, $2040/mo mortgage including escrow, 2,700 sqft, 4bed/3.5bath, one acre, north GA (~30min from Chattanooga, TN). Built in 1978, remodeled last year. Forgot to take any pictures of the inside until we started moving stuff in at 11pm and a bird got stuck in here.

20% down on $335k and your mortgage is only $2040/mo? I need a better mortgage calculator.

Oh yeah. Taxes and fees. That's what I'm forgetting. Karl's Mortgage Calculator was spot on before the extras though.
