Put deposit down on a rental house today
Swimmod_Luna replied to Swimmod_Luna's topic in Free-For-All
Gordon will have a basement AND upstairs area to explore. I'm just worried because the upstairs is like a loft kind of area and there's a half wall thingy with an opening that goes right down the stairs. I could see him getting curious about what's beyond that half wall and jumping right over it and falling 8 feet down the stairs. Edit: I was gonna link to a pic of said half wall thing but there's a bunch of creepy motherfuckers here for all I know one of y'all would reverse image search it to find the address of the listing for the house or something. -
We move in June 1st. Get to pay utility bills for two places for a month since our current lease isn't up until the end of June wheeee. But at least that gives us plenty of time to clean at our current place and move all our shit with no big rush. And most importantly move in somewhere with central air before it starts getting too hot.

5 I think? Maybe 6. -
That's when our lease is up.

Oh hey I lied looks like they start at $1876....And look how much space you get.
-
The Flats now has apartments that start at like, $2000 a month. For a one bedroom. 10 years ago it was mostly just abandoned buildings.
-
The Flats is super gentrified now but other than that this video is still very accurate
-
Why so I can make more complaint threads about them? Hard pass.
-
Oh ya dude this area is super cheap. Only downside is u have to live in Cleveland.
-
Not really. Not all places do hard inquires and even if they do that only stays on your record for two years and the impact is so tiny it's barely worth mentioning.
-
There are plenty available but it's hard to find one in decent shape in our budget. That's why we're really excited about this one we saw yesterday. It's an older house but in decent shape. The agent finally sent us the background check form so fingers crossed. One other couple came to look at it while we were there and then one more as we were leaving.

I'm tired of apartments so renting a house seemed like a good next step. I'm getting tired of moving every few years though I'm looking forward to buying someday and just staying in one place for awhile.
-
Hadn't planned on it lol. We're not financially ready to buy and even if we were our lease is up end of June so we'd have to find and close on a house in less than 60 days.
-
Absolutely. NE Ohio is super affordable and also a great place to live if you know what areas to avoid.
-
Combined we might make about that but I don't remember ever saying I alone make that much because I sure don't <_< By the time we're ready to buy Kidney will probably be working a real job so we should be good.
-
We'll probably just save up for a year or two and then look into buying. Housing is pretty cheap here so I'm thinking around 150k would get us pretty much any house we would want since we don't really need anything too big or new/fancy. 5% of that is really doable. Like we could even do it now if we wanted to have absolutely no savings left (which of course we don't thus why we're gonna wait a bit).
-
I have no idea how much dawn payments are <_< But I mean the point still stands I don't exactly have enough for any down payment sitting around, at least not without wiping out 100% of our liquid assets which probably isn't a good idea when you first buy a house. I know a mortgage would be cheaper each month but the down payment is the only thing stopping us now. We're hoping this will be our last rental. Stay here for a few years while saving up for a down payment and then buy a nice lil house.
-
Because I totally have 20k just laying around for a down payment.

Our lease is up end of June and we're trying to get a house this time instead of an apartment. Seems like it's a lot harder to find a house than an apartment though. Finding something in our price range that's suitable is tough enough, then you finally find one that looks good and it's a whole thing just trying to schedule a time to see the house. We saw one last night that was pretty much perfect. Told the agent we wanted to put in an application and even came prepped with our paystubs because we knew from seeing it online we were gonna love the house. Gave him the paystubs and our e-mail addresses and he said he'd send us the application. Nothing.

Sandboxes are the stupidest piece of playground equipment.
Swimmod_Luna replied to SwimModSponges's topic in Free-For-All
I don't like sand. It's coarse and rough and irritating and it gets everywhere -
Have you looked it up on your computer? Google knows everything, man.

Ads are based on what you've been searching. I don't get ads on desktop (thanks adblock) but on mobile I see a lot of ads for wedding stuff and for house rentals; both things I've been doing a lot of searching for.

Movie still looks like it'll be ass even if they had a good design. All I'm getting from this is that they're throwing more money into something destined to fail.

There is no truer sign that you're getting old...

I pulled a muscle in my back once bending over to pick up an empty soda can.
