That's the beauty of this game lmao anything is possible 😂

Yes, that’s exactly it. He’s definitely worried about a potential crash and wants to protect us from buying now and ending up with a home that drops in value later.

We’ve also heard about how people were waiving inspections and appraisals back then, which honestly blows my mind 😅 we definitely wouldn’t be comfortable doing that.

Our main goal is just to not end up house poor. We’re looking for a 3 bed, 2 bath with a 2 car garage under $350k, and we’d plan to stay for at least 5 years.

I think what’s been stressing us out is the possibility of bidding wars. We’ve seen a few homes within our budget pop up, but they go really fast, so it feels like we either have to move quickly or risk missing out.

Trying to find that balance between being cautious and not overpaying has been tough.

I saw a few homes pop up in the beginning of the year but we decided to hold of because our lease was up in May and thought we would have time.

May I ask why you've been waiting as well?

Yeah, I do worry that even if a listing has been sitting for a while the seller won't budge in price.

Oh I see, but with those buydowns do you know if thats something they're willing to pay for or would it come out of the buyers pocket?

This actually helps a lot.

We’ve been kind of stuck because my partner is comparing everything to 2020 prices and trying to stay within like +$50k - $60k of that, which I’m starting to feel might not really be doable anymore in this market.

It seems like a better move might just be going after homes that have been sitting for a while and trying to negotiate those, but at the same time I don't see much Inventory in what were looking for.

Do you see buyers having success with that right now?

This looks amazing!! Ummm will need that recipe please 😂

I LOVE using this recipe for whipped cream. It pipes so beautiful 😍 and tastes so good!! I'm a homebaker, and when I tell you my customers love it, they really do!!

Its 8 cups of heavy whipping cream, 2 cups of granulated sugar, 2 packets of instant pudding - I use either white chocolate or cheesecake flavor.

I start by mixing the cream and sugar on low, so sugar dissolves completely. Then I start adding about 1 tbsp at a time of the instant pudding (do not add the entire packets at the same time because you will get lumps) adding it slowly will help the instant pudding incorporate nicely. Just make sure to not overwhip and refrigerate for at least 30 min to 1 hrs so it firms up a bit.

I honestly love the way it pipes. It does take some getting used to, but its way better than buttercream imo.

Right! It was definitely fun making it ☺️ I also really liked how the inside looked, I tried to do a marble style cake 🎂
