<prompt> Human: Little background: Im 22 years old, Ive saved up around 25k, which I want to put on a down payment of a house that cost around 150k, I have a steady job that pays 15 an hour but I only get about 10-15 hours in a week as a full time student, student loan debt free however I have supplment income through selling on eBay, Ive done it for years and have gotten it down pretty good and usually net around 750-1k in profit every month conservatively. Im still living at home free of rent but its about time to finally get out my parents place, I would be moving in with my girlfriend who makes about 800 a month working at a publixhospital. I work at an apartment complex and could get a discounted rent for probably around 650 excluding utitilities for a 2 bed 1 bath however I always have been very financial conscious and hate the idea of throwing that money away when I could be putting it into paying off a mortgage, any suggestions?  <response>: You probably cant qualify for a mortgage with your low income, but even if you could, I wouldnt recommend buying a house before you graduate and get a job. You may have to move for a great job offer, so owning a house at this point in your life is not a good choice.
