Homeowner problems
I am the first person to own something in my immediate family (my dad did but he doesn’t anymore so I don’t feel like that counts). No one tells you anything about dealing with HOA or downstairs neighbors. I think the hardest part for my right now is trying to balance owning my home and setting aside money for fun stuff. I do not want to be house poor and not be able to do anything fun in my free time. Lately it’s just bill after bill after bill and it sucks. And I HATE it when people say “that’s being a home owner!” How about you put the shut to the up and give me some useful information. I have recently been feeling a lot of pressure in two aspects of my life: my savings and my physique.
