I love our house, but I do miss the simplicity of renting sometimes. Like in the first year of homeownership, we're fixing toilets, we're painting, we are redoing drywall, we are replacing ceiling fans. I had no idea there were so many different types of ceiling fans. I've spent so much time and money at the local hardware store.
And no regrets because it's really worthwhile and there's a sense of pride and ownership and, you know, making things exactly the way that we want them to be. But it is a lot of work and you have to be like up for that. And what they say is true, that owning a home is a lot of work.
You don't need to own a home to be an adult.
I know that there's a lot that feels scary in today's housing market. There's high prices and mortgage rates are really unpredictable. But at the end of the day, if you are ready to settle down and you're ready to to put some roots down and create a space and design a space that facilitates the life that's meaningful to you, it is still totally possible to buy a house.
And it might sound simple, but having that positive attitude and planning ahead can really be a power move to help you reach that goal.
Happy to be here.
