capitalism is a disease

holy shit. our apartment is ~1300 sq ft. and about what you pay. it's a block with black people and handful of handful of latinos and lots of homeowners so anyone who rents has their money go a long way cause racists/people with money don't want to be around us. that's a good thing. and our neighbors are friendlier than in other neighborhood we've lived.

really not looking forward to the first coffee shop. but i could go for a grocery store or at least a sundries shop. local cvs closed down (after the company got the only other pharmacy to close) after a few short months...the pieces of shit.

our pad would cost over $2,700+ easy in a "diverse" white neighborhood, but you're only paying for the manicured landscaping and hipster or snob vibez

too bad. the homes in my neighborhood are incredible. i wish i had the money to buy one and fix it up. they're cheap as far as homes go, but i still don't have the monies.

:(

That's awesome. Must have been a huge downpayment huh?

It was a refinance and I had a 790 credit score. That was about as low as rates when after the crash.

In 2007 I bought a decent four bedroom multi level home with five acres in Montana for $398.000. But then you have to put up with fire season and winter.

Just think of how much cheaper you could've gotten it for if you had waited until late 2008.
