Don't buy anything yet until you fix (or leave) your marriage. A friend of mine made that mistake. He bought a house to make his wife happy. His wife got a D right after escrow closed, he ended up paying mortgage on the house for many years while his XW lived there with the OM, and he was barred from that house himself! Don't make that mistake!
