<prompt> Human: I want to buy a house as opposed to renting. Ive rented an apartment four years prior to this so I have experience posting bills, rent, and other expenses. Ive never really created a budget for myself I take an ask myself, do I really need this? Sort of approach when buying things. In fact I dont buy things because I am building rebuilding my credit. my score is in the low 600s, up from the high 400s due to delinquent accounts. My first year of career training is finished electrician I make pretty OK money I guess 13.50 before taxes. And have about 5k in my savings. I am eager to become a home owner instead of doing what seems like throwing 350 down the drain each month. I should also mention that I live in Ohio, and can work with my hands and have resources if I decided to renovate a house.Edit: wow Ive a lot to learn. This whole growing up thing makes my stomach feel uneasy. But its easy right? Pay your bills and save money. Just have to stay focused.  <response>: No. Buying a house right now is not feasible for you.Get more money in savings for your downpayment and closing costs.Become a journeyman master in your profession and start making real money.Fix that credit score so banks will actually lend to you.Actually make a budget. What the hell dude? It isnt rocket surgery. Time to grow up.Do not impulse buy a junk house to fix it up either. That is going to cost you a lot more money than just 350 per month.
