Flight Simulator for my Home

[PilotPetey]

New to this forum and to flying. Recently received my private license and would like to practice as much as possible when at home. Will eventually purchase a single engine plane (possibly new or within 5 years) but need hours and skills before such an investment. Willing to spend money on a decent simulator but would prefer to find a used one if possible. Also not a IT hardware wizard so not about to build my own. Need advice and also searching to see if any available for sale. Preference would be in SouthEast US region.

I found that a Saitek with a flight simulator on a PC is good for practicing instrument procedures. I found it actually hurt when doing primary training. It doesn’t have the feel a real airplane does and interferes with learning to land.
