<prompt> Human: We are renting a nice, older home in a community we plan to stay in for 15 years or more we have small kids and dont want them to switch schools as the schools here are some of the best in our state. Our landlord told us on Friday that he is wanting to sell our house and offered to sell it to us first. We got majorly burned on a house that we bought in 2008 just before the crash and had to sell in 2012 due to a job change my husbands current job is much more stable and I am a stay at home mom. We sold it for exactly what we owed but had to pay 4000 in closing costs. Then we had a second kid with some complications. Long story short, here is our current financial situation:Husbands take home pay: 3300mo.Monthly expenses: 2900 which includes a zero interest credit card payment of 330mo that will be paid off in December.Savings: 7000 and we add 400mo.Current rent: 800Home value: 109000Asking price: 85000 but needs a new roof, has possible foundation issues, and a garage that is in really bad shape and will need to be replaced within 5 years.I used a calculator online and our mortgage payment would be 687mo. with tax and insurance.Seems like a good deal but the house needs some work and we are scared after our first home buying disaster.Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks!  <response>: Get it inspected, there is no point in even considering it if you dont know how extensive the problems are
