Some stupid “open concept” thing with a french restaurant and a diamond store. Also we were/are on the lower income side of life which I get is our fault because she didn’t finish college and I couldn’t afford it and all that, but it does kinda suck.
Nah man, isn’t anyone’s fault for not finishing college. No one ‘deserves’ to be poor, and college isn’t for everyone - especially if your mom was already raising you at the time.
Just surprised. Highest property tax rates are around 2% in the US, at least - your house has to be worth quite a bit for that to even approach the average rent prices which would make a move financially reasonable.
Though that’s as much a condemnation of the rent prices in this fucking country as anything, I suppose.
I think it was more the “lot” than the house, we had the worst little one story house in the neighborhood, but I did love it. I think it was a fixed mortgage too, but she did own the house rather than rent. While she technically made a profit from the sale due to 20yr+ of living there, she had to take a downgrade on the living situation because other prices also rose, but her line of work is kind of localized so it’s either that or a 2hr commute. I am moved out now anyway because this is america and so you’re worthless as a man if you live with your mom (I know other countries consider multigenerational households the norm which honestly I wish we did too, but we don’t), but it’s still a bummer. The renters in the area had it happen too, just earlier, lost a few good friends that way actually.
… the fuck kind of mall was it to boost your property values that high?
