real estate is the wisest investment you can make, yeah, you may not get rich off of it, but you will never lose money in real estate unless your neighborhood becomes the ghetto (which you would see coming before it was too late), or you buy land on a swamp or something.

The market sucks here in north Texas where I live.Were saturated with new construction and a big factory pulled out of here and left a buch of people behind that now cant afford to live here so they are all sellling their houses.Over saturation of houses for sale=a buyers market.
Equity buildup is allmost non existant.

Im happy living here though.I bought my 2950 sq.ft. house for $189,900.I just had it apraised and it apraised for $205k.
Its got 5 bedrooms,2 dineing areas,study,3 full baths,2 living areas,2 car garage.Its paid off so its like money in that bank.

The good thing is that in 5 years the projected growth for this area is 35%.The national average is 2-5%.

Dude... How much did you buy your house for? You'd pay probably about $800/mo with that term and interest rate where I live. I can't relate...?
