For most everyday cooks, Groark recommends half to 3/4 of a <a href="https://www.amazon.com/Kingsford-Grilling-BB0466-Chimney-Charcoal/dp/B07TM721ZS?th=1" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener sponsored nofollow sponsored">charcoal chimney</a>. </p><p>While half to 3/4 of a chimney is a pretty safe rule of thumb, remember: too little charcoal could mean your grill doesn't get hot enough while too much charcoal could mean it gets too hot. </p><p><strong>Quick tip:</strong> Use less charcoal if you're cooking low and slow. Use more for fast, hot cooks.</p><p>If you don't have a chimney, use as much coal as you need to cover the bottom of whatever space you are cooking atop. If the charcoal starts to burn down on longer cooks, add more to the pile and keep grilling.</p><table style="border-collapse: collapse; width: 100%;" border="1"><tbody><tr><td style="width: 25%;">Amount of Charcoal</td><td style="width: 25%;">Temperature</td><td style="width: 25%;">Cook Time</td><td style="width: 25%;">Grill Size</td></tr><tr><td style="width: 25%;">¼ chimney</td><td style="width: 25%;">Low heat</td><td style="width: 25%;">Slow</td><td style="width: 25%;">Small, Medium, or Large</td></tr><tr><td style="width: 25%;">½ to ¾ chimney</td><td style="width: 25%;">Medium heat</td><td style="width: 25%;">Moderate</td><td style="width: 25%;">Medium or Large</td></tr><tr><td style="width: 25%;">¾ to 1 chimney</td><td style="width: 25%;">High heat</td><td style="width: 25%;">Fast</td><td style="width: 25%;">Large</td></tr></tbody></table><h2><strong>How to use a charcoal chimney </strong></h2><h2><strong style="color: #222222; font-size: 15px;"><div type="image" title="Charcoal chimney starter sitting inside a grill" height="1413" width="1884" msid="91842822" hostid="261"></div></strong></h2><p>Charcoal chimney starters are the preferred way to start a charcoal grill for most people. To start a charcoal grill using a chimney starter:</p><p><strong>1. Fill the chimney with charcoal.</strong> Add as much charcoal as necessary for the food you're cooking (see chart above).</p><p><strong>2. Place lighter cubes, newspaper, or paper towels under the chimney.</strong> Add one of these to the chamber underneath the chimney. This will serve as your starter.</p><p><strong>3. Light the starter.</strong> Use a long lighter to spare your fingers. If you're using newspaper or paper towels, consider adding a few drops of cooking oil to help ignite it.</p><p><strong>4. Wait for the charcoal to ignite.</strong> This should take about 12 to 15 minutes. You'll eventually see an amber glow and the top layer of charcoal will turn grayish-white.</p><p><strong>5. Dump the lit charcoal into the grill.</strong> Once ignited, carefully dump the lit charcoal into the grill (under the grate) in your preferred arrangement (see below) and begin cooking.</p><p><strong>Quick tip:</strong> Aside from newspaper and paper towels, Doritos are another household item that can help light your charcoal since they are surprisingly flammable, Groark says.</p><h2><strong>How to light charcoal without lighter fluid or a chimney</strong></h2><p><strong></strong></p><div type="image" title="Hand-lighting charcoal inside a grill with a lighter" height="1407" width="1877" msid="91842824" hostid="261"></div><p>If you don't have a chimney starter, another reliable, yet simple option for starting a charcoal grill is the newspaper method. </p><p><strong>1. Place newspaper under the grill grate.</strong> Ball up newspaper and place it wherever you wish to place your charcoal. If you plan to have multiple heat zones, place the newspaper in each location charcoal will be. Sprinkle a bit of cooking oil on the newspaper to help it ignite.</p><p><strong>2. Arrange the charcoal around the newspaper.</strong> Use enough charcoal to cover the newspaper sufficiently while still allowing airflow to encourage ignition.</p><p><strong>3. Light the newspaper.</strong> Find a piece of exposed newspaper and light it with a long lighter. Remember to light your newspaper in every zone you established.</p><p><strong>4. Wait for the charcoal to ignite.</strong> This will take a bit longer than it would with a charcoal chimney but the charcoal should all ignite within about 15 minutes. Keep your grill open to let oxygen feed the fire. You're ready to grill once your charcoal is grayish-white.</p><h2><strong>How to start a charcoal grill with lighter fluid</strong></h2><p>According to the experts, this is the least recommended of the three charcoal grill starting methods. Not only can it be dangerous, but it can also affect the taste of your food if not executed properly.</p><p>According to the Snider brothers, "many brands of lighter fluid are known to contain harmful chemical compounds that don't break down easily," which means they may end up in your food and potentially even make your food taste bad. For the same reason, they also suggest avoiding instant-light charcoal.</p><p>Should this be your only option, though, Groark reassures that, "As long as you allow [the lighter fluid] to burn off to that amber glow, you will taste nothing but that classic charcoal flavor."</p><p><strong>1. Arrange charcoal on the grill. </strong>Place your charcoal in your preferred arrangement.</p><p><strong>2. Douse the middle of the pile(s) in lighter fluid.</strong> Use approximately 1/4 cup of lighter fluid per pound of charcoal.</p><p><strong>3. Light with a long lighter.</strong> Let the lighter fluid soak in for about 30 seconds first, and back up when lighting in case of a flare-up.</p><p><strong>4. Let the charcoal burn until it is grayish-white.</strong> This should take about 15 minutes.</p><p><strong>Warning:</strong> Never pour lighter fluid on hot or burning coals, even if there's no visible flame.</p><h2><strong>How to arrange your charcoal for optimum temperature control</strong></h2><p>Now that you know how to light your charcoal, you'll also want to choose the best charcoal arrangement to properly prepare whatever food you are grilling.</p><div type="image" title="how to arrange your charcoal@150x" height="1875" width="2501" msid="91842826" hostid="261"></div><h3><strong>Simple one-zone arrangement</strong></h3><p>Charcoal is arranged in a bed across the entire bottom of the grill. This is the most basic configuration but provides only direct heat.</p><p><strong>When to use it: </strong>For grilling only food(s) that require direct, fast cooking.</p><h3><strong>Classic two-zone arrangement </strong></h3><p>Charcoal is arranged in the center of the grill or off to one side. This creates a two-zone configuration with a "hot zone" for searing and fast cooking over direct heat and a "cool zone" for slower cooking and resting foods over indirect heat. "[The cool zone] also gives you an area to move your food in case of flame flare-ups," the Sniders say.</p><p><strong>When to use it: </strong>For grilling a variety of foods that require different temperatures and time cooking or to have the flexibility of being able to control the temperature as you grill.</p><h3><strong>Snake method</strong></h3><p>Unlit charcoal is arranged in a 300-degree circle around the perimeter of the grill with no charcoal in the middle. Lit charcoal briquettes are added to either end of the "snake" to ignite the charcoal over time and maintain steady heat for a long cook.</p><p><strong>When to use it: </strong>For slow cooking or smoking foods for a long period of time.</p><h3><strong>Minion method</strong></h3><p>Unlit charcoal is arranged around a center pile of lit charcoal. The unlit charcoal slowly ignites over time for a steadier slow cook.</p><p><strong>When to use it: </strong>For slow cooking or smoking foods for a long period of time.</p><h2><strong>When is charcoal ready to grill?</strong></h2><p><strong></strong></p><div type="image" title="Lit charcoal" height="1413" width="1885" msid="91842828" hostid="261"></div><p>When the charcoal turns grayish-white, you'll know it's ready to begin cooking. If you start grilling before this, the Sniders point out that the biggest consequence will be less heat.</p><p>"One of the biggest advantages of charcoal grills versus stovetops is that charcoal can get much hotter," the brothers say. "This allows you to achieve an incredible sear on <a href="https://www.insider.com/best-steaks-for-grilling" target="_blank" rel="noopener">meats</a> and <a href="https://www.insider.com/grilled-vegetables" target="_blank" rel="noopener">vegetables</a> and creates new reactions that develop deep flavor. If you don't wait long enough for your charcoal to light up, you won't get this advantage."</p><p><strong>Charcoal grilling safety tips<br /><br /></strong></p><ul><li>Never leave your grill unattended.</li><li>Avoid excess grease or oil, which can cause flare-ups.</li><li>Never douse your coals in lighter fluid once they are lit.</li><li>Learn how to control the heat by adjusting the vent. A closed vent means less airflow and, therefore, lower temperatures. Alternatively, an open vent means more airflow and higher temperatures.</li><li>Keep a "cool zone" on your grill with no charcoal beneath it so you can move your food if any flare-ups occur.</li><li>Position your grill away from bushes, trees, your house, or anything else that could catch fire if hit by accidental sparks or flames.</li><li>Be sure coals are extinguished before disposing of them.</li></ul><h2><strong>How to put out a charcoal grill</strong></h2><p>Putting out your grill after you're done cooking on it is the safest and most economical action you can take. Not only are you taking steps to prevent accidental fires, but you might end up with some leftover charcoal to use for future grilling escapades. </p><p>Here's the <a href="https://www.hpba.org/Consumer-Information/Barbecue-Outdoor-Living/Grill-Safety/Charcoal-Grill" target="_blank" rel="noopener">safest way</a> to put out a charcoal grill: </p><p><strong>1. Put the lid on the grill. </strong>To extinguish coals once you are done cooking, put the lid on the grill and shut the vents to prevent oxygen from feeding the coals. </p><p><strong>2. Let it cool and safely dispose. </strong>After you have waited for the charcoal to cool completely, which can take up to 48 hours, you can safely dispose of them. Once the ashes are cool, wrap them in aluminum foil and put them in the trash.</p><p><strong>3. Clean your grill. </strong>From here, you can give your grill a good <a href="https://www.insider.com/guides/kitchen/how-to-clean-a-grill" target="_blank" rel="noopener">cleaning</a> to get it ready for your next meal.</p><p><strong>Quick tip:</strong> Though you might be tempted to douse your hot charcoal in water, it's safer to avoid this method, as it can disperse ash and burning-hot steam.</p><h2><strong>Insider's takeaway</strong></h2><p>Though it may seem intimidating, lighting a charcoal grill is simple. Choose the charcoal type, lighting method, and amount that works for the food you are cooking and the size of your grill. Then decide how to arrange the charcoal in the grill.</p><p>Experts agree that using the chimney starter lighting method and cooking on a classic two-zone arrangement will give you the most control over safety, temperature, and amount of time grilling.</p><p>Above all else? Don't overthink it and enjoy the process. As Groark says, "nothing brings back the nostalgia of one's childhood cookout more than the smell and flavor of a meal grilled over charcoal."</p>

You'll eventually see an amber glow and the top layer of charcoal will turn grayish-white.</li><li><strong>Dump the lit charcoal into the grill.</strong> Once ignited, carefully dump the lit charcoal into the grill (under the grate) in your preferred arrangement (see below) and begin cooking.</li></ol><p><strong>Quick Tip:</strong> Aside from newspaper and paper towels, Doritos are another household item that can help light your charcoal since they are surprisingly flammable, Groark says.</p><h2><strong>How to light charcoal without lighter fluid</strong></h2><div type="image" title="Hand-lighting charcoal inside a grill with a lighter" height="1408" width="1878" msid="82722585" hostid="261"></div><p>If you don't have a chimney starter, another reliable, yet simple option for starting a charcoal grill is the newspaper method. <br /><br /></p><ol><li><strong>Place newspaper under the grill grate.</strong> Ball up newspaper and place it wherever you wish to place your charcoal. If you plan to have multiple heat zones, place the newspaper in each location charcoal will be. Sprinkle a bit of cooking oil on the newspaper to help it ignite.</li><li><strong>Arrange the charcoal around the newspaper.</strong> Use enough charcoal to cover the newspaper sufficiently while still allowing airflow to encourage ignition.</li><li><strong>Light the newspaper.</strong> Find a piece of exposed newspaper and light it with a long lighter. Remember to light your newspaper in every zone you established</li><li><strong>Wait for the charcoal to ignite.</strong> This will take a bit longer than it would with a charcoal chimney but the charcoal should all ignite within about 15 minutes. You're ready to grill once your charcoal is grayish-white.</li></ol><h2><strong>What about using lighter fluid?</strong></h2><p>According to the experts, this is the least recommended of the three charcoal grill starting methods. Not only can it be dangerous, but it can also affect the taste of your food if not executed properly.</p><p>According to the Snider brothers, "many brands of lighter fluid are known to contain harmful chemical compounds that don't break down easily," which means they may end up in your food and potentially even making your food taste bad. For the same reason, they also suggest avoiding instant-light charcoal.</p><p>Should this be your only option, though, Groark reassures that, "As long as you allow [the lighter fluid] to burn off to that amber glow, you will taste nothing but that classic charcoal flavor."</p><p><strong>1. Arrange charcoal on the grill. </strong>Place your charcoal in your preferred arrangement.</p><p><strong>2. Douse the middle of the pile(s) in lighter fluid.</strong> Use approximately 1/4 cup of lighter fluid per pound of charcoal.</p><p><strong>3. Light with a long lighter.</strong> Let the lighter fluid soak in for about 30 seconds first and back up when lighting in case of a flare-up.</p><p><strong>4. Let the charcoal burn until it is grayish-white.</strong> This should take about 15 minutes.</p><p><strong style="color: #222222;">Warning:</strong> Never pour lighter fluid on hot or burning coals, even if there's no visible flame.</p><h2><strong>How to arrange your charcoal</strong></h2><p>Now that you know how to light your charcoal, you'll also want to choose the best charcoal arrangement to properly prepare whatever food you are grilling.</p><div type="image" title="how to arrange your charcoal@150x" height="2084" width="2501" msid="82722587" hostid="261"></div><h3>Simple one-zone arrangement</h3><p>Charcoal is arranged in a bed across the entire bottom of the grill. This is the most basic configuration but provides only direct heat.</p><p><strong>When to use it: </strong>For grilling only food(s) that require direct, fast cooking.</p><h3>Classic two-zone arrangement </h3><p>Charcoal is arranged in the center of the grill or off to one side. This creates a two-zone configuration with a "hot zone" for searing and fast cooking over direct heat and a "cool zone" for slower cooking and resting foods over indirect heat. "[The cool zone] also gives you an area to move your food in case of flame flare-ups," the Sniders share.</p><p><strong>When to use it: </strong>For grilling a variety of foods that require different temperatures and time cooking or to have the flexibility of being able to control the temperature as you grill.</p><h3>Snake method</h3><p>Unlit charcoal is arranged in a 300-degree circle around the perimeter of the grill with no charcoal in the middle. Lit charcoal briquettes are added to either end of the "snake" to ignite the charcoal over time and maintain steady heat for a long cook.</p><p><strong>When to use it: </strong>For slow cooking or smoking foods for a long period of time.</p><h3>Minion method</h3><p>Unlit charcoal is arranged around a center pile of lit charcoal. The unlit charcoal slowly ignites over time for a steadier slow cook.</p><p><strong>When to use it: </strong>For slow cooking or smoking foods for a long period of time.</p><h2><strong>When is charcoal ready to grill?</strong></h2><p><strong><div type="image" title="Lit charcoal" height="1414" width="1885" msid="82722593" hostid="261"></div></strong></p><p>When the charcoal turns grayish-white, you'll know it's ready to begin cooking. If you start grilling before this, the Sniders point out that the biggest consequence will be less heat.</p><p>"One of the biggest advantages of charcoal grills versus stovetops is that charcoal can get much hotter," the brothers said. "This allows you to achieve an incredible sear on meats and vegetables and creates new reactions that develop deep flavor. If you don't wait long enough for your charcoal to light up, you won't get this advantage."</p><h2><strong>Charcoal grilling safety tips</strong></h2><p>With any method of cooking, particularly when open flames are involved, ensuring you are following the proper safety protocols is essential.</p><p>No matter the method of starting your charcoal grill, to do so safely, be sure to:</p><ul><li>Never leave your grill unattended</li><li>Avoid excess grease or oil which can cause flare-ups.</li><li>Never douse your coals in lighter fluid once they are lit.</li><li>Learn how to control the heat by adjusting the vent. A closed vent means less airflow and, therefore, lower temperatures. Alternatively, an open vent means more airflow and higher temperatures.</li><li>Keep a "cool zone" on your grill with no charcoal beneath it so you can move your food if any flare-ups occur.</li><li>Position your grill away from bushes, trees, your house, or anything else that could catch fire if hit by accidental sparks or flames.</li><li>Be sure coals are extinguished before disposing of them.</li></ul><p><strong>Important:</strong> To extinguish coals once you are done cooking, put the lid on the grill and shut the vents to prevent oxygen from feeding the coals. After you have waited for the charcoal to cool completely, you can safely dispose of them.</p><h2><strong>Insider's takeaway</strong></h2><p>Though it may seem intimidating, lighting a charcoal grill is simple. Choose the charcoal type, lighting method, and amount that works for the food you are cooking and the size of your grill. Then decide how to arrange the charcoal in the grill.</p><p>Experts agree that using the chimney starter lighting method and cooking on a classic two-zone arrangement will give you the most control over safety, temperature, and amount of time grilling.</p><p>Above all else? Don't overthink it and enjoy the process. As Groark says, "nothing brings back the nostalgia of one's childhood cookout more than the smell and flavor of a meal grilled over charcoal."</p><a data-type="609abeb1adf09e0a7e762559">How to clean a grill and remove stuck-on gunk</a><a data-type="591604fce559f11c008b4f00">The 4 best charcoal grills in 2021</a><a data-type="609983f6bac7614ebd4b5d9b">How to grill salmon to flaky, tender perfection - plus tips to prevent sticking</a><a data-type="609c49fb9831314dec37bb4c">The 10 best grilled vegetables for your next backyard barbecue</a>

As usual, the new ranking came with some controversies:</p>
<ul>
<li>London's <a href="http://www.telegraph.co.uk/foodanddrink/foodanddrinknews/11120946/Nobus-two-London-restaurants-stripped-of-Michelin-star-status.html">two Nobu restaurants were both stripped of their stars</a>.</li>
<li>Manchester, widely expected to feature, didn't get any stars.</li>
<li>Britain still has no new two- or three-star restaurants - a cultural humiliation for a country that many have argued is leading the way internationally.</li>
<li>Two stars went to restaurants on remote Scottish islands, "The Three Chimneys, housed within a crofter's stone cottage on Skye, and the Isle of Eriska on the tiny island of the same name in Argyll," <a href="http://www.theguardian.com/lifeandstyle/2014/sep/25/skye-scottish-island-restaurant-awarded-michelin-stars">The Guardian noted</a>.</li>
</ul>
<p><a href="http://www.bloomberg.com/news/2014-09-25/michelin-awards-new-stars-to-14-u-k-restaurants-six-in-london.html">Bloomberg added, archly</a>:</p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;">"It's a slim haul for a country whose food scene is developing so rapidly. The total of 167 stars is paltry and just four establishments have the top ranking."</p>
<p>The UK's most famous chef, Gordon Ramsey, kept his three-star rating at his Chelsea restaurant.</p>

Britain Gets Humiliated In New Michelin Star Restaurant Rankings

<p></p><div class="KonaFilter image-container display-table"><div><div class="image on-image"></div><p></p></div></div><ul class="summary-list"><li>My husband and I <a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/biggest-mistakes-when-buying-home-real-estate-what-to-avoid-2019-6">bought our first home together</a> in Hamilton, Ohio - it was in between our jobs, so neither one of us would have a terrible commute.</li><li>We paid under $100,000 for the house, but it's an older home and has some quirks.</li><li>We think it was a steal, though, since it's in a great location and our monthly bills come to about $1,000.</li><li><a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/yourmoney?utm_source=bullet">Read more personal finance coverage</a>.</li></ul><p>When my husband and I got engaged, we started <a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/millennials-buying-first-house-tips-advice-2019-1">shopping for our first home</a> together. Up until then, we'd both always <a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/how-to-rent-a-house-a-guide">rented apartments</a> or rooms in apartments.</p><p>We had a unique challenge: Our jobs were a total of about 1.5 hours away from each other. I wanted to take on a bit more of the commute (I'd chosen my job <em>knowing</em> it would create this giant commute; he applied for and got his job earlier) and we wanted to live somewhere between the two cities where we were employed. That landed us in ... Hamilton, Ohio.&#xa0;</p><p>Lucky for us, we were able to <a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/mortgage-tips-first-time-home-buyer-2019-5">buy our first house</a> for under $100,000. Here are the factors that we think made it such a steal.</p><h2><strong>Location, location, location</strong></h2><p>Hamilton is a city of 60,000 people, which makes it substantial but not a big city by any stretch; it's too far from Cincinnati to really be a suburb - about a 40-minute drive - but it isn't really out in the middle of nowhere either.&#xa0;</p><p>Our area is not a high-income zone. We've experienced, like other cities in the Rust Belt, problems with factories closing down and jobs heading to other places.&#xa0;</p><p>Near Hamilton are a few more prosperous towns where the cost of housing is higher. In nearby towns like West Chester, homes are much more likely to go for higher amounts for the same square footage as Hamilton. According to Zillow, the median house price for Hamilton homes is $161,600, while West Chester has a median price of $243,000.&#xa0;</p><p><em><strong>Looking for your first home? Find out how much house you can afford:</strong></em></p><p>We made the choice to live in Hamilton instead of the other towns around us based on these housing prices as well as the commuting distance to our jobs.</p><p>We discovered that Hamilton is experiencing a lot of urban renewal and that there are lots of great civic organizations functioning here, so opting for an up-and-coming town was a good choice for us.</p><h2><strong>Older home vs. new construction</strong></h2><p>By opting for a home built in 1912 or so (the records are murky), we got a lot of charm but also a not-ideal amount of future maintenance.&#xa0;</p><p>A very thorough property inspector helped us verify that we'd need some serious repairs, though the previous owners had been in the house for 30 years and had done a great job keeping it updated.&#xa0;</p><p>Within the first two years, we replaced a hot water heater, fixed a broken chimney (nothing with roofing is cheap), and had a dead and dangerous tree taken down. Those costs - $600, $2,500, and $450, respectively - were not chump change.&#xa0;</p><p>The third and fourth years of living in the house were much less costly by comparison, but we're saving for when the furnace or central air inevitably bite the dust.</p><p>While by no means ideal, even a few thousand dollars' worth of repairs didn't raise the overall cost of owning our home by very much. Opting for more recent construction - and a higher price tag - would have made it much less possible for us to purchase a home.&#xa0;</p><p>We also feel that we got a better deal than we would have in a house with newer construction, since our home has stained glass, hardwood floors, and beautiful detailed woodwork on the staircase, all things that would be out of reach of our budget if we went with a newer home.&#xa0;</p><h2><strong>Oddities of the house&#xa0;</strong></h2><p>While these things don't bother us, there are some oddities that we notice about our home. For one thing, our yard is not large (just 0.11 acres), which mostly means that mowing it is easy. It'd be a bad fit for a family with a super-active dog or two, though.&#xa0;</p><p>It also had only one bathroom when we moved in, and the bathroom was on the second floor. We've since changed a big closet on the main floor into a bathroom, but I can see how "four bedrooms, one bathroom" was a tough sell, since families with enough members to need four bedrooms are likely to want at least two bathrooms in their homes.</p><p>The last thing I thought might have helped us score a lower price is that the kitchen is small and not modern, a little galley off the main area of the house. I don't mind it, but it doesn't have that "open-plan living room/dining room/kitchen" look that is so popular right now.</p><p>While we don't know for sure, I believe that the $98,000 list price we saw when we first considered the house was artificially low already because of these quirks.&#xa0;</p><p>Houses of similar size in our area were going for a little more, around $110,000, and the original list price of the house, before we saw it, was $105,000.&#xa0;</p><p>We placed an offer of $93,000, since we liked the house but weren't in a rush to buy, and they countered with $96,500. When the inspector's report showed some needed repairs, we documented what they would cost and were able to negotiate another $3,000 down for a final cost of $93,500.</p><h2>Our mortgage interest rate is low</h2><p>Between my husband and I pooling some savings, we were able to put 20% down. That offered some benefits on costs like <a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/what-is-private-mortgage-insurance-definition-cost">private mortgage insurance</a>, which is required for smaller percentages.&#xa0;</p><p>We also opted for a 15-year mortgage with a low interest rate of 3.25%. While literally everyone told us that it is perfectly fine to keep a mortgage long-term at such a <a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/how-to-find-the-best-mortgage-rate">low interest rate</a>, both of us really loved the idea of paying off our house in under 30 years if we could.&#xa0;</p><p>Others said that the lower monthly payment on a 30-year mortgage would increase our cash flow, but we liked the slightly higher monthly payment with the lower interest rate (the rate would have been closer to 3.75% for 30 years).</p><p>We&#xa0; also figured out property tax in our area (around $2,000 a year on our house's current valuation, which was just a little lower than what we paid for it) and we figured out what it would cost to insure it ($1,200 a year, once we found a good insurance agent).&#xa0;</p><p>When everything was said and done, our monthly bill amounted to around $750 for property tax, home insurance, and our mortgage itself. We'd seen one-bedroom and two-bedroom places that cost more than that in rent.&#xa0;</p><p>We also worried that utilities would eat us alive - after all, 1,800 square feet feels like too much for two people. But it has worked out: With a smart thermostat that keeps us from heating and cooling excessively when we are out of the house, our bills for all climate control, electricity, water, sewer, and trash rarely break $200 per month. This probably varies by location, but it was good enough for us.&#xa0;</p><h2>The takeaway</h2><p>If you divide everything out, we've been paying something like $1,000 a month, including occasional repair and upgrade projects on the building, to live in our beautiful old house. We like the low cost of living in Hamilton, and we try to pay ahead on the mortgage whenever we can.</p><h3><strong>Can you afford to buy a home?

Here's exactly how much it costs to own my 4-bedroom, 2-bathroom home outside of Cincinnati

<p></p><div class="KonaFilter image-container display-table"><div><div class="image on-image"></div><p></p></div></div><ul class="summary-list"><li>I've owned two homes in Minnesota; <a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/things-i-wish-id-know-before-becoming-a-landlord">I bought my first in 2012</a> and <a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/what-it-costs-to-own-my-home-in-the-minneapolis-suburbs">my second in 2017</a>.</li><li>When I bought my first house, I was paying $2,200 a month in rent, so I thought a house with a small mortgage would be cheaper - it wasn't.</li><li>I wish I'd known a few things before becoming a homeowner, including the hidden costs of maintenance and how difficult it can be to find a realtor and lender who work well together.</li><li><a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/yourmoney?utm_source=bullet">Read more personal finance coverage</a>.</li></ul><p>My journey with <a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/how-to-buy-a-house-step-by-step-guide">home ownership</a> has been complicated. Since my husband and I got married in 2011, we've purchased two homes: one in 2012, and another in 2017.</p><p>If we had just stayed in our 2012 home, made money on the sale, and <a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/what-it-costs-to-own-my-home-in-the-minneapolis-suburbs">purchased again in 2017</a>, there probably wouldn't have been any problems. But we took a more roundabout path.&#xa0;</p><p>After our son was born in 2014, I quit my office job to stay home and finances were tight. To make ends meet, <a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/things-i-wish-id-know-before-becoming-a-landlord">we rented out our 2012 house</a> and moved into a cheap, old apartment to save money. Not a bad move.&#xa0;</p><p>When our second son was born in 2017, though, we upgraded to a fancier apartment downtown. After that lease ended, we were at a crucial crossroads: Would we keep "throwing money away" on rent, move to a smaller, cheaper apartment, or buy? We opted to purchase.&#xa0;</p><p>While we don't have any major regrets about our twists and turns between homes, we definitely could have thought things through more carefully to protect our finances.&#xa0;</p><p>Here are a few things I wish someone had told me before we took the leap into home ownership.</p><h2><strong>Owning a house is expensive&#xa0;</strong></h2><p>It may seem obvious, but home ownership comes with so many hidden costs - and in some cases, <a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/when-renting-is-better-than-buying-a-home">renting could be the smarter financial move</a>.&#xa0;</p><p>When we purchased our 2017 home, we were paying $2,200 a month on an apartment in the middle of Minneapolis. Buying a home made sense to us at first, since our house payment would be $400 less than our rent.&#xa0;</p><p>But we failed to consider that renting also meant we weren't paying for home maintenance.&#xa0;</p><p>When we bought the house, we also spent money on a lawn mower and other lawn-maintenance tools. Within the first year of purchasing, we paid landscapers, a chimney sweep, and an HVAC contractor to keep up with our house's issues.&#xa0;</p><p>I also wish I had known that a home with more space means buying furniture to fill it. Compared to our tiny two-bedroom apartment, our house felt like a castle, which meant we dropped a good amount of money on furnishing the rooms.</p><h2><strong>Dipping into your 401(k) for a down payment isn't worth it</strong></h2><p>When we hopped into home ownership, we wanted to benefit from cheaper monthly payments. But because we'd been spending so much of our income on rent, we didn't have much extra to set aside for a down payment.&#xa0;</p><p>Unfortunately, we decided to withdraw from my husband's 401(k) to increase the down payment on our 2017 home so we'd have a lower monthly payment. It wasn't a great choice. Not only did we basically drain his retirement savings, but we also paid a tax penalty on the withdrawal.&#xa0;</p><h2><strong>Freelancing can make it hard to buy</strong></h2><p>My husband and I felt like we were in a stable financial position when we went to get pre-approved for our 2017 mortgage. He was making a decent salary, and I had been growing my freelance business for the past year.&#xa0;</p><p>Then we learned from our mortgage officer that for my income to count towards our pre-approval, I had to have two years of 1099s.</p><p>I only had one year, so we could only use my husband's income for our pre-approval - which meant that even though we could technically afford a more expensive home, we were limited to purchasing one that his income would cover. Luckily, next time we buy, I'll have several years of freelancing under my belt.</p><h2><strong>Find a mortgage broker/realtor team that works well together&#xa0;</strong></h2><p>I had no idea how frequently our mortgage officer and real estate agent would be in touch during the pre-approval and search process.</p><p>When we bought our first home in 2012, we opted for a mortgage officer a friend had recommended and a realtor another friend suggested. The experience was fine, but the pair had never worked together, so communication was slower.&#xa0;</p><p>When we bought our second house in 2017, we let our realtor recommend a loan officer he enjoyed working with. I was impressed by how efficiently the two communicated, and the entire process went smoother than I could have imagined.&#xa0;</p><h2><strong>You may have to settle on negotiables&#xa0;</strong></h2><p>Going into the search process, I had far too many non-negotiables for the home itself. I wanted at least three bedrooms and two bathrooms, at least twice the square feet of our apartment, a fenced-in yard, central air, and an updated kitchen. No wonder the results on our MLS were scant.&#xa0;</p><p>By opening up our search prospects to include houses with one bathroom, we found a home we wouldn't have otherwise come across. The house was cheaper than options with multiple bathrooms, so we hope to add a second when we can afford it.&#xa0;</p><h2><strong>It can pay to expand your search</strong></h2><p>Having lived in the city for most of my adult years, I was resistant to the prospect of moving to the suburbs. I had just had my second son when we set out to buy our home, and I didn't want to be "that parent" - the one who buys a minivan and moves out of the city.&#xa0;</p><p>Unfortunately, limiting our search to very specific neighborhoods in the city left us with few options we could afford. If we wanted a nicer, bigger home with a yard (and lower property taxes), we realized we'd have to expand our search to at least the first ring of suburbs around our city.&#xa0;</p><p>After doing so, we <a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/what-it-costs-to-own-my-home-in-the-minneapolis-suburbs">found and made an offer on our house</a> within a few days, and we haven't regretted it!
