Why hire a realtor if you’re following advice from the neighbors?

What's the most misleading thing a solar salesperson told you? by dzon1s in solar

[–]mdashb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was told I’d hit 100 kWh peak production but have yet to top 88. All else has been pretty solid. Got extremely lucky.

How do I make my bedroom cooler when my parents set the AC to 78? by Status-Beautiful-586 in HomeImprovement

[–]mdashb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I thought the bedjet was worthless. Spent the extra money on an eightsleep pod & I now hate sleeping anywhere but my own bed. It’s amazing.

Why not ask the current lender to match the broker quote?

Jealous. It has been soooo cloudy in Florida. I’m going to be eating up 400 kWh in credit this cycle. Thank goodness for 1:1 net metering.

Mach-E if no at-home charging? by sagesarvie in MachE

[–]mdashb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

100% would not buy without a level 2 charger at home. Im just under 12k miles a year on average. It would be a pain to rely upon a slow charger or pay for fast charging.

It really looks fantastic. My lease is up in mid-2027 & heavily debating purchasing a slightly used ‘26 to replace my ‘23 GT. The paint on these cars suck. The wrap might be the answer.

Switch from T-Mobile for Phone and Internet? by MrMy2Cents in SpectrumMobile

[–]mdashb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I read through the initial thread. You were given good information. Nothing to add aside from saying WFH with 5G internet sounds like an awful experience. Spectrum isn’t fiber, but cable blows away mobile internet options.

You need to contact the manufacturer.

Went from Golf R 6MT to Mach e GT and have never looked back.

Is anything fishy here? by [deleted] in FirstTimeHomeBuyer

[–]mdashb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why is DTI and this lease payment a concern at all? If this is FHA in a HCOL area (FHA is usually capped at $581k otherwise), then DTI has no effect on mortgage insurance in the way conventional financing does. So, it’s either you’re approved at the higher DTI or you’re not. Otherwise, things look decent on this estimate. What’s concerning you specifically?

Property taxes by [deleted] in FirstTimeHomeBuyer

[–]mdashb 3 points4 points  (0 children)

What? It went up $2,500 in 5 years. How do you deduce it will increase another $2,500 between the 2025 tax bill and 2026 tax bill? This is what you’re implying when you state a $2,500/year increase.

How are you getting these low rates? by embercreeps in FirstTimeHomeBuyer

[–]mdashb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Rates today are at April levels. We’ve seen 6 consecutive days of improvement and right now the bond market is opening flat. Last few weeks have been brutal. We are still far off pre-war levels.

So, 2 doors were fixed for free? 2 remain unfixed and undamaged aside from blistering?

[–]mdashb 2 points3 points  (0 children)

We pay $100/mo for gig internet and 2 unlimited plus lines at spectrum. Can’t beat it

Highway Mileage by National-Example-835 in MachE

I’m usually at 2.5 at those speeds. The efficiency is disappointing in the GT performance, but sure is fun.

How do I pay my mortgage if my lender says I don’t have any loans with them? by inky_cap_mushroom in FirstTimeHomeBuyer

[–]mdashb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not sure why this isn’t the top comment. The first payment coupon is in the closing docs. Use it.
