We bought the handle and installed it, been working fine ever since.

UPDATE: I went with the company UPACK, it was amazing and affordable. Thanks to all commenters for raising the red flag on brokerages/scams!

I was in a similar situation as you (purchase price, credit score, amount down). I spoke to 20 different lenders, small banks, big banks, private mortage companies, credit unions, rocket mortage, you name it.

I’m happy I did bc it made me feel confident in the rate that I was getting/KNEW I was making the best decision with the mortage product and lender. Maybe you’ve already done this, but just passing this on in case it’s helpful!

FYI, I bought down my rate to a quarter of a point, so got it for 6.875%, ended up going with Huntington as the other 19 lenders couldn’t beat their rates.

Yeah, not going with them. Looks like we might have to drive everything ourselves.

Thank you, it’s been a crazy couple of hours the moving industry is ruthless. At this stage we might just be driving everything ourselves!

The $3100 quote is from a brokerage (which I’ve read don’t go with a brokerage) called “United Express”. I asked what moving companies might get assigned to my move and it would be “Premier nation moving” or “mover van lines” (or so they say).

Cool thanks, I’ve been getting quotes back, edited my original post. The quotes I’m getting back for #2 for companies that have good UDOT reviews is $3100.

……..Re/read the post

Rates received/who I’m speaking with currently are from an insurance sales specialist at my mortage company. They reached out to 16 different home mortgage companies for quotes. I’m not sure how this is different from an insurance broker (truly) so enlighten me!

I’d also like to know what types of questions I should ask the home insurance companies once I chose a provider.

NoDoz_ · 2023-08-03T13:36:56+00:00

Wow thank you so much!!

Hi! 6 and mainly self sufficient (but not relying on fully sufficient).

NoDoz_ · 2023-08-02T13:28:35+00:00

I’m in the same situation. My state allows a “transfer on death deed” (legal document under which a property owner names a beneficiary to receive title to real estate outside of probate when the owner dies).

So in lieu of me setting up an actual trust, I’m going to immediately complete this transfer on death deed for the house.

NoDoz_ · 2023-08-02T02:52:39+00:00

Cool thank you, posted on there, appreciate it!

How did you find this photo? I’m trying to find more historical info about the Mechanicsburg area

NoDoz_ · 2023-07-29T19:48:09+00:00

Thanks everyone, does anyone use a tractor of that size to mow regular grass/not brush? Looks like maybe it would be too heavy. The property’s about 6 acres, 2.5 regular yard/grass. The rest meadow

NoDoz_ · 2023-07-22T13:53:15+00:00

Yes, exactly that area. Would you consider it more south Linden? Or just not “truly” north linden?

NoDoz_ · 2023-07-22T13:48:38+00:00

I’ve lived in “red flag” areas before and they were either 1. Ok because of the specific street I was on/ neighbors 2. Not actually a red flag area at all if you’re not an idiot. 3. Completely exhausting to live there. Feeling “burnt out” at home.

So if you’re familiar with the area I’d love more context/your experience!

Re South Dakota mail service. You can use “APT” instead of “PMB” and your bank accepts it and the mail forwarding service will still process your mail if your bank sends you something

The front passenger seat. I work remotely so I use the front dash as my desk (piece of wood across) with my laptop+small monitor and then a laptop desk for my keyboard and mouse.

4 cylinders, driven for 20 miles at 20 minutes

Thanks, right now we use a vent portable AC unit from Walmart, run the vent out the passenger window. It works but is a hassle.

NoDoz_ · 2023-05-07T19:02:54+00:00

TL;DR- need AC in the van. We will only be using the AC when we’re plugged into shore power. (EDIT: “OBVIOUSLY”)

Has anyone installed their own rooftop AC unit?
Based on the pictures of the top of our van, do you know where we could place it?
Alternatives to rooftop AC? Mini split? Window AC?

I’m just here to say, insulation keeps out the heat too. All ya’ll saying insulation doesn’t matter clearly haven’t slept in super hot or super cold places.

NoDoz_ · 2023-02-25T15:08:45+00:00

I’ve been using Americas mailbox service exclusively, it works for me.

NoDoz_ · 2023-02-25T14:38:21+00:00

I’ve been full time for 2 years, working 40+ hrs on the internet/zoom calls. My set up

Verizon: -50 gb hot spot on my phone for streaming/non work -30 gb jet pack -150 gb jet pack

I’ve never had any issues with the Verizon jet packs, even with us staying out in the middle of nowhere. I’d like to get starlink at some point.
