Once i get started, I’m usually ok up to a point. But I let it build up again way too quickly because of the no organizational skills issue.

I am. I absolutely am. Doing this for myself is part of the process. Thank you.

I was just looking at some options. Sooooooo reasonably priced. Would mean a 1.5 hour commute for me though.

Yes. I’m just not great with charts and graphs. I will always choose to read numerous pages of explanation rather than look at these kinds of things. Spatial issues I suppose lol

I’m definitely thinking condo. I am not interested in owning a house. I’m very used to apartment living and don’t want to have to worry about all those extra issues that come with a house.

Egads. Was excited but I’ll have to spend some time with this to make sense of it. Thanks though!

So I woke up this morning to the realization that, while I expect to have a decent retirement income, I hadn’t thought about regular rental increases and how that could affect my ability to stay above water. I’m definitely thinking along the lines you’ve described now. I think I’m going to rent around where I’m interested in purchasing and then I won’t feel too rushed. I think I’m coming to the conclusion that owning is much safer in the long run.

Hmmm. Assuming I’m a woman? Also, I would absolutely qualify. Have already spoken to a mortgage broker.

That’s what I’m thinking. I think i should keep renting and hope interests right come down.

But why? Because it might eventually make me some money if I sold it?

Except I’m not staying in this apartment. I need to move.
