✨8 years ago today we closed on our home 🏡 At the time we owned our little shop for just about a year and couldn’t get a loan. Parents had to help, and it took a couple of years before the payments didn’t feel as brutal at the end of each month. At 28 & 25 years old, and I were still kids trying to figure out this whole ADULTING thing while running a small business. But interestingly enough, I believed it to be very important to do whatever we can as soon as we can, to own a home. I essentially had to pitch my parents how this was a good investment and pulled up surrounding comps in the neighborhood. This was at a time when short sales were common. Fast forward 8 years and we’re still here. Making this house our home. We laugh, cry, fight, dance, drink, and are literally still growing up in this house. Might be the most STABLE thing in our lives. Though I know we were so fortunate to have help in the beginning, and not everyone has that..but I can’t reiterate it enough how important it is, if buying a home is a goal of yours, do it as soon as you can! While things around us are always changing and life, work, income, lay offs, recessions, and all of the headlines that scare you with every swipe of your phone…the one thing you can lean on is having a constant roof over your head knowing you don’t have to worry about the landlord upping the rent next month. Personally, I feel this house is our retirement. It’s truly our first baby….well, 2nd, Rjo is our first 🐶.
Long story short, if buying a home is on your bucket list, then start your game plan NOW. What are you waiting for?!
Let’s get it!!! 🚀🚀🚀🚀🚀
