So the last couple of years have not exactly been super comfortable inside my home, however but, that was really preferable to living in an apartment, but when my condo became available, it was a now or never moment plus I went all in, however for what seems like forever, I’ve been saving so I could have a mortgage instead of paying rent.
Along with the usually overwhelmed plus old HVAC equipment, I hated not building any equity while renting, however this was so important to me.
But I also was just ready to not have to share walls with anyone that wasn’t inside my home. The condo I was able to buy is perfect space-wise plus location; I have a yard plus live in a nice village. But the condo was really worn out even though it’s structurally in great shape, and yet, it was an as is situation plus if I obtained it, all the renovations would be up to me. There was no way I was going to beat that price so I took the leap. And with that leap has come with it a current level of patience. When it comes to toiling on this house, I could only do what I could afford. I wasn’t into borrowing a bunch of money just so I could get it all done more hastily. That said, I also saved a bunch of money by doing a bunch of the work myself. The basic renovations were finally capped off this Springtime when the HVAC unit was updated. It was a really old central air conditioning situation plus I had to entire thing updated, but new ductwork went with the current heat pump. At least this Summer, I’m going to be the most comfortable I’ve ever been in my adult life.
