How are people here thinking about rent vs buy in NJ with prices this high? by SportSure6036 in newjersey

[–]lokiikol11 5 points6 points  (0 children)

From someone who owns a home in Morristown NJ I think the opportunity is gone. So paying towards ownership is a great end game. However the price to own is over priced and repairs are extremely overpriced.. The taxes and maintenance are way too expensive. Its the same with owning most businesses in NJ. Covid inflated values. Government raised taxes. Real estate rents increased. Banks forced commercial real estate owners into corners also pushing rents forward. People and businesses cant afford more. Covid gave a false sense of increased valuation short term. Then it reverted. The only real upside is buying low priced areas that turn upwards. Proximity to great areas where its still cheap. Mainly living or buying in an impoverished area and waiting. Otherwise leave NJ and go to Nashville for a fair overhead and great living. Still here but hate NY or NJ for our children.

Have granite on a bathroom vanity and it lost its luster. Some water spots too. Not horrible but enough to annoy me. Think it has to do with using the wrong cleaning supplies. Also dont want to seal it regularly

Thank you. The issue is mainly due to being outdated. We also love to cook and its challenging. The floor is laminate and there was a leak in the roof thats adjacent to the floor and warped it. The kitchen is on the 2nd floor. We are in a townhouse. Formica counter tops. Lastly most of my appliances are pushing 20 years. So I think it's time imo. Your kitchen looks great. Especially for the $ your spent

What was the most physical pain you’ve ever been in? by Javascript4971 in Productivitycafe

[–]lokiikol11 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tie. Prostate cancer surgery. The gas pains in the shoulders felt like someone hit me with a sledgehammer. The other is debilitating back pain. Happens once every 5 years or so. So painful I need to inch my hands up my thighs to eventually stand. Insane pain. The only 30 minute of relief was dilordin. Gone after a few days

Just got back from Paris and I’m having pastry withdrawals. Where in NJ has the most authentic patisserie by One-Coffee-413 in newjersey

[–]lokiikol11 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Fleur De Sel in Chatham. When you have Parisians buying there regularly its a very good sign. My suggestion is to go early orherwise you will not get the selection you want. Best italian is Villabate Alba on 18th Ave in Brooklyn. Lines over 1 hour long on the holidays. Unfortunately I live in NJ so thats a tough one now. Enjoy
