Apartment Issues


When the time came for me to get my own place with my (now) fiancĂ©, I immediately chose an apartment. I wanted something close to where we were living so I would feel comfortable in the area and something that was in a complex that I felt safe because of the lighting, and the general atmosphere and vibe I got when visiting. Looking back, I really wish we would have planned our move more and shopped around a bit. Seriously, houses right now are so cheap, it’s pretty insane. Not saying everyone can afford them right now, but if you can; now is the time! I have found so many houses in our area that are going for less than $200,000. I know that’s quite a bit of money but the monthly payments on them are cheaper than what we are paying for our apartment right now. Pretty crazy, right? Looking back, it’s upsetting realizing how many months we would have already been into our new house. I wish we would have been able to do it back then. But, the past is the past. I can’t wait until we are able to get into a house that is cheap. I’m so tired of apartments and all their problems. Right now we have a leaky toilet and the windows leak as well, which lead to mold if you don’t clean them all the time. I know things like this could happen at a house, but I’m just so sick of neighbors and having to be quiet. I want to be able to do our laundry at 2 in the morning if we want to, and play movies or music loud. It’s something to look forward to for sure! I’m very excited!
