This week is going to be about housing, buying and what you need to think about. Some I have already pointed out, but as I have also pointed out (I am sure I have), I often need repetition myself to get things. It’s not that I have a hard head, although some would claim that, but I do have a lot going on so some things get passed over if I haven’t thought about them in a while. The less important things at the time get dropped off the edge of my mind into a temporary storage area. This is great and the only problem with it is that after a certain time I tend to dump everything in there whether I wanted to or not.
I have been thinking about the different aspects of housing because buying the first new house is a bit nerve wracking. There are so many things to consider. I have talked about a few already in previous posts, and to be honest I will probably be talking about some of them again until it sticks, and I get it. Once I get it then I can start considering the other stuff about after you have a new house. Like the regular upkeep costs and other things I will have to cover, instead of not worrying about it with an apartment or condo.
If you are in a good apartment or condo there are several things that might make you hold off on buying a house. Mainly the convenience of everything. The yard work is taken care of, garbage and sewage are taken care of. And if something breaks you don’t have to buy a replacement or repair things yourself you just call the manager and they normally take care of it. Being in an apartment is not bad, but there is something about a house.
