Second week of school. It's amazing how much easier undergrad is when you're an adult. Still plenty of work, but it's just another game entirely at 25 rather than 17. The house I'm looking to buy we just put under contract Monday. The loan application is pretty much done, too. Every party is 100% down and no one foresees any snafus, loan officer included. I can't fuckin' believe it. By April 1st, I might have a house. And the subsidy is such that renting out just one of the bedrooms at market rate will cover the mortgage, taxes, insurance, and then some. There are 2 bedrooms, and a half-finished basement begging to be turned into something cool. I have a ticket to see Malcolm Gladwell and Tyler Cowen Feb. 27 in DC. Any questions you'd like asked?
Unfortunately no, the program has a few requirements, among them that applicants be first-time home buyers. And you have to be really poor. Which, after volunteering for a few years, certainly describes me. But the opportunity is an enormous leg up. And the house is pretty gorgeous
Really!? I thought your workstation alone was worth a king's ransom. I pinch myself every day.
My workstation is made up of pieces available at Guitar Center.
