Buying a House In A Down Economy

It’s time to buy a house, I think.  I’ve been browsing though Denver home mortgage sites to try to get myself pre-approved so I can get looking for a good place in the area.  I’m really hoping I can find something worthwhile here soon, as I want to buy while the prices and the interest rates are low.

It does feel a little weird to be buying a house in a down economy like this, but what can you do.  I have enough saved, and I think my job is secure enough that I should have any issues affording it.
