I am also 67 years old, and cannot imagine taking on a mortgage at this age, drawing SS.  

I was willing to work very hard to pay off our mobile home and this house, but neither of us had intentions to even be making house payments in our 60's.   

I get what you're saying but not everyone has the benefit of two incomes or two people pulling together to build a life. Ya gotta deal with what is.

 

I'll likely have a house payment in retirement, too. It's not the end of the world. The OP either buys now with the benefit of her income + SS and a good chunk down. OR....

 

She continues to fill the pockets of her skumlord who can continue to raise her rent or cancel her lease at an age when she no longer wants or is able to work.
