Yes, creating waterways / ditches / swales in the yard to keep the water out of the basement. Yes to new-construction-type new windows. Yes to to-the-studs new kitchen. Almost the same with the bathroom. The most help I had was someone to assist me carrying out the 1980's all-in-one kitchen cabinets which weighed TONS. Moral of the Story. . . .

“I can barely fertilize the yard let alone you.” I died a little

[@y_e_i8213]

That part about closing in 2 months and lease ending in less time is so accurate. I’m so happy my mom was my agent bc she went above and beyond. However, those inspections don’t help enough. All furniture is never available when you need it. We bought right before covid and there was still delays in shipments.

[@jenniferbates2811]

Being a renter is sooo much easier! Get your IRA started instead of buying a house!

[@callofdutyblackops9]

@@jenniferbates2811 Bought a house last year and moved out of my apartment, I can 100% never go back to an apartment, the freedom you get with your own home is just unbeatable. The only difference in payment wise is that when you buy a house, the fees and stuff are extrapolated out with trash and utilities and whatnot, with apartments it's all built into the renting price, my mortgage is also cheaper than my apartment was. Also, you can do both. I don't know why you can't do both? Who taught you money? If you can buy a house comfortably, 100% buy a house, you can still get an IRA/retirement started. I'm editing this to say, the biggest advantage is how much your credit improves when you buy a house, if you maintain your payments and don't miss them, your credit SKYROCKETS, leading to a better financial situation all around, but like I said before, DO NOT buy a house if you can't comfortably afford the monthly payments and possible upkeep. Also, like with apartments, tons of research is needed.

[@jenniferbates2811]

It's not that I'm not financially intelligent. I miss the freedom of an apartment. Even with a fixed rate mortgage. Taxes go up every year, property taxes, fire taxes utilities...etc. So you really never "own" your house. Even if you bought your house outright, if you can't pay the property taxes the city takes your house. It's different for everyone. Enjoy your home 🏡💙.

[@SirenEyeMedia]

I look at owning a house like rent that I will eventually get some refund on. Renting is easier, and I did it for a long time. But I like the idea of SOME of the many thousands of dollars I spent coming back to me.

[@jenniferbates2811]

[@zachbonebrake352]

I'm at the stage where I'm annoyed that my monthly payment increases every year because of increasing taxes and whatever the heck else.

[@STMARTIN009]

Yeah but rent goes up every year also and depending on what state you live in you can be paying more to rent over the long haul than buying. Mortgages end at some point.

[@zachbonebrake352]

@@STMARTIN009 Totally agree with you.
