i think its called an egress...used an emergency exit when a door cannot be built, and also allows homeowners to count additional square footage of basement since its not technically an enclosed room, i think

Yep. Make sure you know what you can actually afford before building up a taste for something you might not be able to.

Paying off any debts to lower your debt to income, gives you more home buying power. Get your credit score up.
When those are good, get pre-approved by a lender, figure out how much you can afford.
Then figure out what you want in a house/area/neighborhood

Home inspection scheduled for this Thursday. 
Hoping we don't have to be outside for too long and it doesn't rain hard.

Considering you bought a condo you shouldn't be outside for too longHome inspection scheduled for this Thursday.

Also, bad weather is great for home inspections because you can see how the house handles it.

No - you should do the walk around with them. I just did it on two properties with no issue, wear a mask

I went through NACA. Great program with great benefits. Depending on your situation, it can be really easy or really hard. If your finances are straight and your credit report is clean, you'll breeze through. If not, you'll spend a lot of time cleaning that stuff up.
The main barrier people have is the time to close and the overall duration of the process. If you're house hunting and trying to buy within a month, do not do this program. Some sellers aren't willing to wait weeks to complete back-and-forth paperwork and some buyers don't have the patience to deal with the requirements, especially if its in a hot market.
I purchased a new construction home so I wasn't in a rush to move in. My counselor was great and quick to respond to calls and email. I can't say too many programs beat their closing benefits and interest rates. I made too much to benefit from other housing programs in my area.

There's no catch. They tell you all the requirements and considerations of the program upfront.

I just hate dealing with the rain in general.Considering you bought a condo you shouldn't be outside for too long

For sure will be there. I'm required to wear a mask, gloves and social distance from the inspector.
