I think many of us use hyper-consumerism as a means of validating our self-worth.We NEED to upgrade to a new cell phone every year, we NEED to take expensive vacations to show our friends how fun our lives are, we NEED to purchase the more expensive car, we NEED to eat at chic restaurants and document the experience all over our social media.

This can be solved by the lender being willing to add the buyer’s commission to the purchase price when calculating maximum loan amount.

I'm looking to purchase my first SFR in NJ, and Trenton caught my eye due to the low entry point.

Purchase price: $171,000 Cash invested: $34,000 Bought a 2 unit as a househack, living in the upper and renting out the lower unit.

I'm impressed lot of us do the same strategy lol, I almost purchased another 5/2 two months ago in hayward but got outbid again LOL

I think the intention was for the 2nd "sleeping area" to the left side to be for guests not for a permanent occupant to use.

I'm very close to purchasing my first Memphis property.  

We have gotten our finances in line and currently are looking more in detail to purchase our first real estate property.
