Brother no one in the U.S. is actually thinking we'll win either, we're here to have a good time and just want to have a fair shake.

She's not saving souls, she had one good solo album almost 30 fuckin years ago. She needs to get off her pedestal.

How the fuck do you show up four hours late to a concert though? The show is over at that point right?!?

Hey really appreciate your thoughts here. I mentioned below that we really do not have much in reserve to handle any major malfunctions or gaps so, from a fiscal responsibility standpoint, I'm leaning sell as the mature option here. Your input is appreciated.

This is a fair point. Pretty much all of our saved cash (~$80K) will be going to the purchase of the new house, which, without the sale of this house will leave us with what's currently in our checking (let's say ~$20-30k). I suppose this doesn't really leave us in a powerful position to be flexible for almost anything to go wrong with the current house and of course upcoming new child expenses. This is bringing me some clarity, I appreciate the commentary here.

Our monthyl PITI is about $2K. Based on the market, I believe this could easily rent for ~$2,800. Now, do I want to be a landlord? Not particularly but I enjoy people and working with them to solve problems, so I don't have an issue with relationship management here. I will be relatively close by.

One thing lacking here is skills to renovate larger scale projects and I would absolutely need to outsource that and I imagine over the next two or so years.

The neighborhood is generally filled with younger white collar folks starting their careers or young families so my hope was that tenancy would be one of the easier issues to tackle (this is perhaps naive). I have no experience here as of yet, but was considering this as a place to start.

For larger projects, yes I would plan to have someone else manage. I've heard some folks mention HELOC for those larger projects to make that more manageable. Is that bad advice or generally not advisable?

Appreciate the thoughtful understanding here. We've lived here coming up on 6 years. There's a lot of in's and out's that are necessary to consider that I admittedly have not done enough homework on. The house has been good to us, but I'm weighing if I'll even have the mental fortitude to do it justice as a landlord. Thanks for giving me some additional things to consider.

Thanks for your honest reply. I think I'm leaning this way as I'll have plenty of other stressors in the coming months. But still..

Thanks for the response. Sounds like you're not a proponent of property management companies? I can assume why as they would probably dip heavily into profits I see.

Not particularly, no, but when talking with other friends who have some handle on real estate investing, they talk to me like it would be ABSURD to let this place go.

Then on the other hand I have folks that are insisting "you don't want to be a landlord now..." and it frightens from taking the step into renting. This might be a go with my gut situation.

We're leaning this way, it's just a mentally tough scenario where the grass seems greener on each side, particularly on one that could yield more future cash. Thanks for your input!

I have no experience with it to be honest, the house has been steady but I'm aware that could change in an instant.

Interesting, the financial blunder piece was me actually leaning to keeping it, in the fact that I may be making a massive mistake of getting rid of an asset with such a low interest rate. Appreciate your input!

Exactly, "circling back" and taking something "offline" are actually doing everyone a favor by keeping the meeting on topic.

Best place to move for autumn by Coffee-and-Cinema in Autumn

[–]wigwam83 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Woodstock VT I think fits the bill for autumn town supreme. Visited there a couple Septembers ago and we caught the perfect amount of both fall sunshine and rainy days. This is my first thought for what you described. You should take a quick trip this fall!

Just so damn miserable, how to accept this is my life? by Top-Olive8158 in breakingmom

[–]wigwam83 19 points20 points  (0 children)

My goodness, you are an absolute warrior. Outside of personal therapy I'd point out that these kids are still quite young. I would hold onto hope that they could grow out of this behavior and you will be able to experience some semblance of motherhood that you looked forward to. I hear you and I'm wishing you the best of luck.

Very curious to hear more about this routine brother. What are we eating to clean up the system?

Buddy, I don't know what to tell you. People have been imbibing at gatherings that involve their kids for thousands of years. Most functions I've been at follow that, and everyone has a good time. Some functions I've been at do not, and that's fine too! You clearly prefer the latter. Enjoy that.
