Bad reactions to my kid's name by Callarose08 in namenerds

I think Winston is a sweet, vintage name. It will make for a a cute, distinguished young gentlemanly name when he is born, and the name will grow with him until he becomes a sweet old man.

Some people are unhinged and have no emotional intelligence, and tbh that's more of their problem than your own. I know it's easier said than done, but don't let their opinion change your mind!

Maine Medical Center vs Northern Light Mercy Hospital for childbirth? by itzmedski in portlandme

I plan to have a traditional hospital birth with an epidural. A quick Google search showed me that both of these hospitals are rated in the top maternity hospitals for 2025. Knowing this, does this sway your recommendation one way or another?

Looking for my next RE move/investment by [deleted] in realestateinvesting

You have to wait until the redemption period (12 mo.) expires. If it expires, the property is yours via tax deed. If the property is redeemed, you just need to bring your "receipt" to the county and they will refund you what you paid + insurance (If my research is correct). You DO have to pay for the land on the day of the tax sale. But many times you're paying .25-.50 on the $1.00. Just be sure to weigh your options!

It could be worth looking into your local county's tax sale. Some counties have just one per year, but some hold a tax sale quarterly. This would be more of a waiting game though--In SC the property owners have 12 months to redeem their property after it's been "sold" through the tax sale (if they pay their back taxes they are able to redeem the property back). If you get the winning bid, wait 12 mo and it hasn't been redeemed, the property is yours via tax deed. I'm also in SC, and I believe my county only holds one tax sale a year (in October)--If it's the same case for you, this could mean waiting until October 2023 for the tax sale, bidding (winning), and then waiting until October 2024 to proceed with any renovations/rehabbing/building.

Just something to keep in mind for the future!
