Expensive Housing
Why do houses have to be so expensive.. even apartments are expensive, just any type of housing. Even though the the prices of houses have dropped a lot they are still kind of high, my dad says that they should be dropping a little more though. The rent we are paying right now is actually pretty good compared to similar places and I am certain that anyone who moved in after us pays more than we do because prices everywhere are going up so quick, our rent actually went up 50 dollars! Anyways, I was recently looking around to see if I could find a 2 bedroom house to rent for the same amount we pay now because a yard would be an awesome benefit for the same price, but no such luck.
Pretty much all 2 bedroom houses are going for like 2,500 or more and for a price like that we may as well be paying off a morgtage. A house of our own would be awesome but you need such a large down payment and it is also kind of hard to decide on where you want to live for the next 35+ years or probably more. What I want most is just a yard, that’s one very negative thing about apartments.. with a yard we could have a swing set and do different activites outside all day, have barbeques, garden and just relax under the trees. Well we are still young, so I am sure that will happen sometime.. I just wish it were sooner than later.
