Good luck! I remember that feeling distinctly. Almost 30 years ago, I was in a position where I HAD to either buy something or condemn myself to a lifetime of privately renting, as I would never again have been able to afford both saving for a deposit and paying private rental. Luckily, I just had enough money to get on the property ladder. The housing market in the UK is very different to that in the US, and there is much more security of tenure here. But having come close to being homeless, I resolved not to be in that position again. Owning a house is a never-ending succession of unexpected bills, but at least it's spending on something that's YOURS, and you don't have to wait until the landlord gets round to unbunging the drains or whatever. I hope your new home is all you wish for. As you say, that feeling of stability is priceless and, actually, you can't beat it!
Congratulations!!!! I've been loving to watch your journey this past year (been following you since maybe 2018). Congrats on this amazing step!! :))) <3

thank you! and ohhh yess updates are coming :)
