As others have said, much depends on personal circumstances. Prices are pretty low and will probably remain so. The developer is offering some pretty good deals on remaining houses as they close out a neighborhood. If you are going to carry a mortgage, rates are at an all time low. You will need to look at all your carrying costs. Mortgage, taxes, bond, utilities, amenities fee, lawn care, insurance etc. If you are able to rent you will also need to furnish the house ( unless you buy a turnkey). Do the math and then ask yourself "if we can't rent it, is it still worth it to buy now?".
Many of us left after first visit with a desire to buy right away but don't rush. There will be many houses to choose from when it's the right time for you to buy
