[quote=Anonymous]Try not to be, OP! There's no shame.  :)  And home ownership is not always what it's cracked up to be. I bought my first home in early 30s, (with a 7% interest rate), and it was a terrible experience. I didn't do my due diligence and ended up in a crappy, poorly maintained house that wasn't right for us with awful neighbors that were really loud, constantly trespassed our property, and even expected us to pay for a kid's injury when their unsupervised trespassing child entered our fenced/gated backyard while attempting to vandalize our property.  :lol: I dreamed of leaving that place for so long but it's not nearly as easy as just finding another apartment. No one was buying back then and no one wanted this awful house. I rented for years after that, I had a lovely cheap little place and if anything broke / needed attention, it was as simple (and cheap!) as a call to the landlord. I was recently able to buy again and although I love my home, I do miss the free repairs and appliance replacements. [/quote]
