Closing!

To honor my home closing, I arranged a Mexican holiday to be celebrated. Happy Cinco de Mayo!

Today is the biggest day of my life. It is a very exciting and nervous day! Eek! I am very proud to be buying a home by myself at my age, but I know I am not alone.

Just a few facts...

Single female buyers accounted for nearly twice as large a share as single male buyers for both first-time home buyers and repeat buyers.

20% of recent home buyers were single females, and 10% were single males.

More women (15.5 million) than men (11.8 million) lived alone, among these women were more likely than men to own their own homes (56% vs 47%).

Over the time period of 1994-2002, the number of unmarried females owning homes climbed from 13.9 million to 17.8 million.

Wish me luck!
