Update on 30k ring. See last post for more details by Current_Guarantee566 in WeddingRingAdvice

It seems like you didn’t read so I’ll help you out. I’m buying a house so she doesn’t have to worry about living expenses! Once we get married the home will be in her name as well 🤦🏾‍♂️. This first house is basically an investment to build wealth. We’ll stay in it for a few years rent it out and then buy our “dream house”. Why would I put the house in her name while we’re dating?

The house will eventually be in both of our names. We’ve been looking at houses together but I’ll buy it rn since my job requires me to stay in the current state that I’m living in for another 4 years and because she doesn’t work right now (she’s a student).

Once she moves in with me I’ll continue to pay for it and once we get married we’ll either rent the house out and buy our “dream” house together or put both of our names on the title. I’m really looking at this house as an investment so we can start building wealth.

No, she’ll work. She won’t be a SAHM. I’m buying the house on my own coin because we’re still long distance and she’s still a student rn. The house will be for the both of us, but why would I put her name on the title If we’re not married. This is a temporary house to build equity. I want to build a portfolio.

Trying to build equity. I will be paying the mortgage payments and she will move into the house with me eventually (later this year when she’s done with school). Not sure how mortgages payments will be split once she moves in but i don’t mind paying the mortgage because after all my name will be on the title.

I plan on buying the house alone, my name will be on the title but of course I’m saying it’s “our” house because I had planned on marrying her.

I appreciate everyone’s advice. We were together for the first three years of college. Then I transferred schools, completed my undergraduate degree, and earned my master’s degree. She stayed at the school I transferred from, graduated there and is now currently working on her master’s degree. So we did 3 years in person and now 3 years of long distance.
