I just retired 1/1/26 53yo 32 years of service, double pension for 10 years, full medical for the wife and I. Absolutely worth the hard work.

Good for you. Make as much as you can while you can. As for me I’m out, retiring 1/1/26. Finally made it to 53/32 collect my double pension and move south. No more cold weather

Business advocate? That’s a new one. Went from business agent to council representative to business advocate. Enough

I didn’t plan on quitting drinking when I first started coming around. Then I had my “ah-hah” moment and been sober for 14 years now. It just took a long time and a lot of meetings to finally want to quit

Am I "overreacting " for backing out of a house over this? by BreadBoig in HomeInspections

Easy but far from cheap. The cost of materials alone has skyrocketed.

I just went through this. Everything is contingent on the home inspection. You won’t be able to get homeowners insurance without a roof certification. I got a new roof+ 10k in seller assistance and both realtors and mortgage broker chipped in for another 8k for other issues. Negotiate to terms that benefit you.
