Renting - Could be Awesome?

AnonymousRegular

Thank you SO much to everyone for your support in my last post. The last 24 hours have been harder than I thought they would. Probably because SOMEONE won't leave the house and just wants to mope around here.

Anywho. Paperwork is being filled out, but the only looming issue is the house.

I love this house. I've put blood, sweat, tears and LOVE into this house. However, the internet has me pretty convinced I won't be able to refinance it in my own name. I just don't have the income, now that my household income has been cut by over 60%. Plus the costs of maintenence.

So tell me all about how wonderful renting an apartment will be with a toddler and two dogs.

So far I've got:

Access to a pool.

Free gym membership.

More time with my baby.

Walking the dogs with a toddler in the summer heat/winter rain everyday at 5am. Oh wait, that's not a plus. That should be on the "shoot me in the head" list.

 

But seriously. If you live in a condo/apartment/sold your house to rent ... can you tell me the things you love about it? Better to rent than be broke/spend all my money maintaining a house, right?
