ugh

So everytime I think everything's going good, everything blows up.

We have to buy a house. Only, we can't possibly afford it. We could afford the mortgage no problem, but the closing costs make me want to throw up.

Does anyone have an extra 12k lying around?

My seller allowed us to offer him more money in exchange for paying a fixed amount in closing costs. I think he paid $3K and I paid the remaining $6K (which was mostly the down payment). You might be able to negotiate something like that in your contract. Ask your realtor.
