My wife and I moved into a property owner by her family and we lived there for several years and did a good bit of work on it. It's a 3/2 in a good part of our little east Texas town, a city that is up and coming. 100k + residents. We got married and decided to move to a larger city for a while but have decided we want to end up back in our old town to starts a family and have a more laid back lifestyle. When laying this news on our family we were offered the deed to the old house we were living in. We think it would be good to live in for a few more years while we save a down payment for our "forever home". I'm not really sure what my question is but any advice on this topic would be great as...well we've never been homeowners before. I will add, the roof and the air conditioning/heating have both been replaced in the last 10 and 5 years. The house has its faults but it's quaint and much nicer after the work we put into it. Did we just become $140k richer?
