You are right in a lot of ways. If you can get a home you love, and a price you can afford, and mortgage rates that are lower then seen in decades I don't think you're a fool for doing so now. It makes sense in a lot of ways.

Prices will likely go down some more, but as you said that's not everything when it comes to buying a home. Don't be afraid to buy now, just know what you're getting in to and realize that you're probably sacrificing the lowest price for the other benefits you've listed.
Sounds like someone takes their work home with them.
