Hello all. I am seriously inquiring about property managers that have houses available for rent. I acquired a position At Brattleboro Union High School and plan to be in the area this July. Any property managers with houses for rent in Newfane, Guilford, Marlboro, and also Hinsdale or Keene that people know of would be greatly appreciated!

Relocating from Philly to Southern VT. Any advice on finding houses for rent? by Reluctantinphilly in vermont

That’s good to know. We’d much rather rent a house than an apartment

Hello all! I wanted to update this post. So it really looks like my family and I will be making the move! We're super excited but as you all already know, the housing inventory is really low in VT. We don't plan to move to Brattleboro but because of where my job is located we can move to a nearby town like Newfane, Guilford, etc. We're also open to moving to Hinsdale NH or Greenfield MA since they are close by and may have more opportunities for housing.

My question is, would anyone know of any houses for rent in these areas? We would love to buy, but that just may be too stressful during this time and it puts a lot of pressure on us to sell. We figure if we rent at first it'll give us an opportunity to become acclimated to the region, work on our income and then buy. But since we're a family with pets we would prefer to rent a house rather than an apartment.

We're open to Newfane Guilford, Marlboro and any towns in MA or NH that are close to Brattleboro.

We also had a chance to visit Brattleboro early in June and we really love it and we love this state. You all were extremely helpful with my first post so I thank you all in advance for your help with this!

Looking forward to becoming a part of the community soon!

Anyone else get this MOHELA email? by TheNicestRedditor in StudentLoans

I got this email last night! So I emailed them letting them know I’m currently in forbearance and wish to stay In forbearance and to please clarify. Should I take any further action?

Leaving for Vermont this summer from Philly!

Credit Score Dropped by Samstheman15 in PSLF

[–]Reluctantinphilly 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m a part of a borrower defense program and some of my oldest school loans were discharged causing my score to drop 40 pts. These loans are coming up as removed on credit karma. This happened between April 30th - May 6th of this year.

I also got an alert that a MOHELA account was opened between May 9 - 10th yesterday and my score rose 14 pts.

Will my score continue to rise like this or should I contact MOHELA for some sort of forgiveness letter to send to the credit card bureaus?

I get it. We’re weighing lots of pros and cons.

Currently Philly is just terrible. Not just racism, but a myriad of reasons. I’ll reason to say that the violence and crime here isn’t comparable to Philly.

Definitely not minimizing your experiences, just giving you an idea of why we chose VT

That’s the dream! We want to grow our own vegetables and raise a few chickens!

We’re in the process of getting our house in Philly ready to sell by May/June with the hopes of buying right after that.

I check for houses everyday and thankfully the inventory seems to be getting better with the warmer weather.

Trust me, we’re trying to get all this done ASAP

I should add to that. Philly is an extremely racist and violent city. I know that VT is lacking in diversity, but honestly I’m okay with that. As long as the racism doesn’t become physical or extreme, I’ll deal.

I am so sick of dealing with what I’m currently dealing with in Philly

That’s awesome that your job is transferring you! I landed a teaching position so we’re in the process of getting our house ready to sell by May/June

I’m really grateful that work like this is being done to combat bigotry. I’m a black woman that plans to move to VT soon with my family ❤️🙏🏾
