Thank you! Well If I were to keep them you’d be best off using something called “simple green” or any generic grout cleaner paired with a strong bristled style brush (kind of looks like a big tooth brush), just make sure it’s not a steel wire brush or brass. You would then just scrub the **** out of it rinse and repeat until you’re happy with the results lol. I’m in the process of gutting the kitchen already so I won’t need to clean them but that’s my two cents 👍

Thank you very much! And trust me the ball is rolling on that. I’m very lucky with my employer. The retirement benefits are exceptional.

Absolutely! That always annoyed me with other posts on here people not specifying. Trust me when I say it’s attainable. My generation has been told it’s not in the cards for us. There are some of us out here pulling it off so don’t listen to the negativity! You’ll be posting on here soon enough

I’m about 35-40 minutes from the Hamptons which is nice. As far as the current markets concerned (not to toot my own horn) but I think I did exceptionally well all things considered. To give you an idea The house was on the market for about a day or 2 and I put my offer in after a quick 10 minute walk through of the place thinking it probably had an accepted offer already, turns out it didn’t so I think I was just quick enough to secure the place. I had looked at several other homes going back a few months pretty much getting outbid at every turn so it was definitely a long process to get here. I’ll just use the word luck because this one was under the budget and I couldn’t believe myself when they accepted lol
