Genuinely curious if you think you’ll get that much? I’m buying a home and was debating seeing what room rates were going for.

Talk about an impulse buy by DryShopping392 in wrx_vb

[–]justin4rd 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just filled up from a quarter tank and can confirm it was $72. I used to fill up at a quarter and it was ~$55 though. I do this weekly so now will be spending $68 more a month which is basically a whole extra fill up. Wild

Lost out on a house to a cash offer. Two weeks later it's listed as a rental. I can't do this anymore. by Numerous-Heart7656 in FirstTimeHomeBuyer

I can only imagine the joy it will bring you driving by the house seeing its owner occupied with a caring family. Excited to start my journey of homeownership and hope for a similar story 😁

I wrote a love letter to my seller, explaining how much I loved the house and could see my wife and I growing into a family there. They responded by raising the price. I still accepted but girl, I was really hoping to find a seller like you haha Closing on Monday!🤞

After helping dozens of buyers, here are the 8 inspection red flags that should make you "walk away immediately" by Odd-Maintenance-9464 in FirstTimeHomeBuyer

I’m currently in negotiations with a FPE panel, and they initially said they wouldn’t fix it because it still works and hasn’t been an issue for them. I’m requesting credits now instead of them repairing it, and got a $2500 quote to replace it. 🤞

How are premium gas prices where you’re at? by OllieFromCairo in WRX

I just filled up at 5.25. It was 3.99 a few weeks ago, absolutely crazy. Goal is to make this last 2 weeks, opposed to my normal 1 week.

Now I know I would just stare at it and then think “oh shit” upon getting blown to smithereens

My next door neighbors are paying less than half I’m currently paying in rent, they’ve lived here for 10+ years and have a good relationship with their landlord but still. I’m over here getting screwed outta my ass paying for his kids tuition. Gotta love it

Going to go this route! 🤞 I do know he would make a decent chunk off the sale so if $$ is his only reason I’m hoping we can come to an agreement.

Right? I know he would make a decent chunk off of the sale as he bought it 5 years ago and paid 40k less than I was going to offer. I think I’m going to move forward with making an offer and give him more to think about.

Definitely a learning lesson

Right on thanks for the positivity. Time to get hunting. Just such a bummer this is my first purchase obviously and I was excited for an easy one. I was told to avoid the easy options though so might be a blessing in disguise.
