There is a house for sale at 507 E 7TH ST in Erie for less than $15,000. You could get a 100% loan with a payment of about $100/month. I would try calling the agent to see if the seller would be interested in some kind of creative financing. You may be able to trade labor for a reduction in price. I have nothing to do with this listing, I found it on Realtor.com, but here is the phone number of the agency it is listed with 814-459-3887. They may be able to help. Good luck!

no sorry i haven't and i lived in pa my whole life. sounds rough though and another good reason not to risk your home to finance something else, sorry i hope it works out for you. hopefully your spouse will have the descency to realize loan or not the home is yours and they shouldn't mess with it.

Ok, do you have access to the INTERNET? Or a LIBRARY? Try GOOGLE, or a NEWSPAPER, or ask a county clerk when they hold their auctions. E-BAY has many options.\n Or you can just drive around your town, and look for houses with white papers taped to the front door, or windows saying something like "STAY OUT!". DON'T go in, but WRITE down the information, and CALL on the phone to get more info. Use a little imagination, tow companies sell impounded cars, or those insidious title loan outfits,(I bet they have a bunch of cars they want to get rid of).

Well, I don't know the SAFEST, because I havn't been everywhere, but I can tell you about 3 places that I have been that seem nice to raise a family.\n#1- I grew up in a suburb called Grandview Heights in Ohio. (By Columbus) It's not real big, but it is quiet, great schools, great location, no trash on the ground, kind of pricey (well...prob. not compared to CA),temperatures go from -10(with windchill) to maybe 100(those are extremes, though), we don't get a lot of snow, though weather in Ohio can be sunny one minute and rainy the next and it's mostly white.(Don't know if that matters to you) It's 10 minutes from downtown, 10 minutes from OSU and 5 minutes to shopping. Now Columbus itself is rough in some parts, but Grandview is NOT at all! Don't speed in Columbus!\n#2- I'm currently in Luna Pier, MI. It's just North of Toledo, OH. It's right on Lake Erie with beautiful homes, though there's not much right here, shopping is about 12 minutes away(freeway) in Toledo. It is truly a SMALL town!(Mostly black and white)It's pretty windy.\n#3- Moon Township, PA (by Pittsburgh) is nice, convenient and clean. Plus, they don't tax on clothes and they have no federal tax! It's by an army base. Mixed races.Nobody seems todo the speed limit, except by schools. \nNow I've been to Cherry Hill, NJ...NOT a pretty place! NJ's roads are confusing, frustrating and it's like one city after another, hardly any green. Plus, it has one of the highest crime cities in the U.S, along with Indiana. Virginia's tax is insane!!! Hopes this help a little!

Try Riverside or Apple Valley. Avoid Orange county I think the TV show have gone to the builders head. Houses are like 500,000 to start. I remember the good old days of 200,000.

It really depends on what you're looking for.  There are four counties surrounding Philadelphia plus New Jersey across the river.  \n\n1. Delaware County: Just south of the city.  Has the best deals on houses of the four counties.  A 3 bedroom single can be found for under $200K.  Very accessible to center city via the SEPTA regional rail.  Some parts are just a 20 minute drive to Center City Philadelphia.  Good schools and okay taxes.  Some of the safer/affordable areas that I'm familiar with are Norwood, Glenolden, Brookhaven, Drexel Hill, Aldan, Aston.  Avoid Chester, Morton, Darby, Essington and some parts of Landsdowne. There's a slightly higher concentration of people per square mile in DelCo but I've found neighborhoods to be much more close knit because of this.  We bought a home in Delaware County after moving from Philadelphia.  We love it!  \n\n2. Bucks County: This is north of the city and pretty expensive.  You'll have trouble finding a good home for under $300K.  However, it's very spread out and safe.  Doylestown is still within commuting distance of Center City and a nice area.  So is Feasterville, Trevose, Bensalem and those parts of lower Bucks County.  I would avoid Bristol.\n\n3. Montgomery County: I think I heard this is the richest county in the state.  It's just west of Philadelphia.  I don't know too much about it but have heard that East and West Norriton are nice affordable areas.  Avoid Norristown though.\n\n4. Chester County: I know even less about this one.  Sorry. :-(\n\nIf you go over to New Jersey you'll be paying $3 in tolls to come to Philly.  But I know there are some good deals over there.  You might want to post a seperate question about that and see who answers.  Also, craigslist discussion forums were helpful to me when I was searching for a home/area to move to.\n\nGood luck!
