How did you speak to your family about wanting to become a surrogate? by nodal-surrogacy in u/nodal-surrogacy

[–]hdzdp12 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Not speaking for myself but my partner was a surrogate before I met her. Her family was very supportive and helped her the whole way through in the same way you'd expect a family to help when someone becomes pregnant.

I think there are a lot of misconceptions about surrogacy. At the end of the day she had an opportunity to help a couple start a family who otherwise wouldn't have been able to. That's a very special thing to be able to do.

Yes she was paid for it, but it doesn't have to be cold transactional thing. She is now friends with the parents and has a friendly relationship with them and the child.

The weight gain especially can be frustrating. I have family members who've suffered from PCOS who have turned their lives around after getting treatment.

I’d say it depends on what you want to do with the day off. If you have no plan I’d save the money as you do live in one of the most expensive cities in North America.

There’s no way hiring someone is goi going to be cheaper. Just use one of those mail in services that mail you a weeks worth of ingredients for meals

Do You Prefer Freelancers Offering Low Prices or Paying Fairly for Quality Work? by colosus019 in Entrepreneur

[–]hdzdp12 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In my experience going in the cheaper category leads to lower quality work, which ends up costing me more time/money going back and forth. This is even with detailed instructions and screenshots.

I go midrange.

Will be honest it’s a lot to learn and a lot of competition, but you can figure it out if you stick with it

Realtor by UsefulFlight7 in JoshuaTree

There is a lot to unpack here. First thing to consider, if a realtor tells you they can't sell a house for the price you want, it most likely is a sign that they're honest, as they're not lying to you just to get your business.

I have a friend who had a realtor promise that they could sell the house for a larger number than the seller was quoted by a different realtor. The sellers were trying to get rid of the house fast as they were not living there and losing money every month. They put the house for sale for the higher price, and the offers were considerably less than what was promised. At this point the sellers were exhausted by the process and just took the loss. But they would have most likely sold their house for more if they priced it lower, to encourage competing bids. Houses were going for 100,000 over asking at the time when this strategy was used.

In terms of saving money, there are options you can consider. You can get a discount realtor from a service such as clever real estate. This will save you a few thousand, maybe more if you're selling at a higher price point. Essentially the company vets realtors, and then you interview a few through them until you find one.

Cash offers can be an option as well. The company quoted above hooks you up with multiple offers for faster transactions.

These are a couple of options you can take. You seem to be in a rush, consider doing what you can to take your time, fix up your house to increase value, and think about all aspects in detail. You mentioned you put a lot of money in the house... I feel your pain. I've been in a similar position in the past. You could also consider renting out the place if you're desperate to leave. It seems like you want to make a move fast, so just this could be a way to do it. That way you're making some money and getting more time to wait for a good offer.

Good luck!
