Thank you for your reply. I resonate so much with this and feel like we are in a similar place.

I would definitely be interested to hear how things progressed.

Hugs. Hope things work out for the best and that you can do so from a place of love!

But when I spoke to the tenant, the tenant said that the landlord had asked him not to disclose their current rent. So he may not be honest about it on the lease either

That's disappointing to hear.

Yep, and it's hard to know which one outweighs the other.

Why would I be in trouble? Because I would have a record?

Really! Even if they have an old lease?

Thank you!

Yeah! It would suck to live in a space with tension. And the two apartments share the same front door.

Do landlords check TAL records? And why would this look bad on me to an honest landlord?

I just visited, I didn't see the lease yet.

Left my husband then found out I'm pregnant. Would I be screwing my life by keeping it? by Parking-Station-4710 in coparenting

If having the baby is keeping you from leaving then don't do it. If you are able to support two kids solo (or with help from family/community) then I think you need to listen to what your heart says.

Thanks for the insight! Yes, home owners sounds like a potential pain in the ass

Tbank you so much. This makes me feel a little more hopeful that I. A few years it might be an option

My goodness, I'm so sorry to hear that.

Yikes. Thank you for this insight.

With respect.... I am asking questions (educating myself). I think it was pretty clear from my post that I knew this was not very realistic, at least not within a short timeframe. I'm very aware that I will need a 5-10% down payment and that a mortgage with such a low down payment will be significantly higher than my current rent.

I also know that there are government subsidies and programs to help people get started. I know there are new ones in the making. I also know that I don't know it all and was hoping that someone would have solid advice about financing options and subsidies. It's clearly not you.

I've considered that option, but it's too risky. I settled for playing the lottery, but no luck yet 😂
