[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My parents did this to themselves. It meant, at first, when they really couldn’t afford it, go into credit card debt to cover basic expenses. It meant terrible fights about money. It meant refinancing to an interest only loan at one point to pay off the credit card debt. Now they can afford the house better than they could originally, but their house has some deferred maintenance. Nothing horrible, but it is stressful for them to have to fix even relatively small things that I wouldn’t bat an eyelash at getting fixed in my little townhouse. They have lived there twenty years and still have no window coverings in their sunroom. [/quote] Isn't the point of the sun room to let in the sun? [/quote]
