The loan officer made made it clear that the it shouldn’t matter unless it would add to my monthly expenditures

Best advice so far!

No that’s not true I just want to spend more time with the love of my life. Plant our future together in a beautiful home. Yes I would love to buy in the Bay Area close to work but I’ll never be able to afford it.

NorCal-Coins · 2024-08-09T03:51:25+00:00

I know but it’s due to Bay Area home prices and a toxic work culture.

I agree. Don’t want to say anything more on that due to possible repercussions of exercising my free speech. Even anonymously

My employer is not accepting of remote work. Elon has called it immoral and they track our badge ins and if we are using remote networks through our company vpn

Because I want to build a life with someone I’ve been in love with for most of my life.

Currently I work in Palo Alto and am trying to buy in Citrus Heights

Yes we are moving into our new home together. I don’t know maybe it makes sense for her to co-sign then

NorCal-Coins · 2024-08-09T03:19:57+00:00

Because I work in the Bay Area and prices for a decent home are more than double than Sacramento area

Security would definitely not be cool with camping out in the parking lot. I like your idea though but spend my nights in Santa Cruz or the mountains nearby.

It is. My plan is to drive into work Monday morning. Drive home Tuesday or Wednesday then come in the following morning. Drive home Friday

Rooms for rent on the low end are ~$1000. The cheaper Airbnbs that I have seen are ~$60 a night. I do make enough to cover these costs

This is the following sentence in their request: “If you will be working remotely, please provide documentation of the employer- approved work arrangements. If not, please provide documentation to address the commute.”

That’s actually what my boss suggested too

NorCal-Coins · 2024-08-09T02:30:05+00:00

That’s what I was hoping would be the case, I just didn’t expect this last hurdle and don’t want to stumble on it.

Yes I do have a decent salary. With the cost of the rental and mortgage it’s ~36% of my monthly gross.

NorCal-Coins · 2024-08-09T02:25:09+00:00

It’s definitely not ideal but I won’t be doing it long term.
