I feel like owning the house will become a burden because your overall goal is to find a man who can provide for the family and lead you all to success while you raise the kids and handle the administrative tasks. With a purchase so permanent you should really wait until you meet the man first and then purchase something together. If that’s not a possibility then future proof your purchase:

• Buy something you can easily sell or rent out
• make sure rents in that area cover your mortgage payment
• Buy something that can appreciate
• Buy something that is in good condition so it’s not a liability.

The house that worked when you were single could easily become and albatross around your neck when it’s time to get married. What if he doesn’t like the house and wants to get another one? Now you gotta figure out what to do with yours. What if you cant sell it or if you can’t get rents to cover your mortgage? The 2 years you lived in that house before meeting your hubby will suddenly not have been worth it. You would realize that you could have just rented in that time frame and would be ready for ever now that you have a hubby.
