Thank you, I appreciate that. If we get lucky, I desire to break the lease earlier than 2021 by paying off the lease in advance, in order to move into our new house. Just as long as it’s NOT during the warmer months, as in June of 2017 we moved on my birthday during record breaking temperatures of 120 degrees, luckily it was a faster process then. Fast forward to 3 years later, July 2020 and it’s hot AF out. Our lease agreement when we moved into our second home, in June of 2017 was for 2 years and that it would specifically end in November because we knew it would be cooler weather and didn’t want to ever move again in such extreme heat. Well, the lease expired last november and we didn’t get a renewal to extend the lease. At the time we were ok with that, then COVID-19 came along and turned our world a bit upside down.

 

The owner of the home, has 2 leasing properties (including ours), plus he owns/resides in a 700,000 property not too far from us, so we think he just wanted to hurry up and do repairs/upgrades on both properties quick, to sell and obtain the equity ASAP, either before the house market crashes, maybe to pay down his home loan on his current property he lives in. He’s a financial planner and does well for himself so who knows. Obviously it’s about profiting, which is totally fine with me because I 100% get it, as we are living in scary times with everything that is going on right now in the world.

 

Also, I just wanted to make clear that I didn’t have any bad experiences in the 2 homes I leased and lived in from December 2010 -2020 The first house in 2010 was beautiful inside and out as well, we needed to do small little repairs from time to time, nothing major but when the real-estate company tried to come at us with 350,000, the common sense reaction was, ” ya’ll haven’t even done any upgrades on the house in 7 years, as the ceiling has a long hairline crack in it and little did we know, the bottom of the pool had crack in it.” According to the real estate agent we were in contact with at the time,  the pipe burst from the washer into the master bedroom, that caused mold shortly after we vacated the premises. We understood that the zip code and the location (is very desirable), the home had a lot of value with that alone but when you haven’t done any upgrades or repairs to it and then the market value at the time in June of 2017, we knew it wasn’t worth 350,000. It is what it is now, the home had a lot of sentimental value to me and really wanted to own it and was approved for the loan but we looked at it, as it wasn’t mean to be. The journey has lead me here, where I am today and I 100% completely trust it, as I am happy and at peace with everything.

 

If you trust in the universe, stay positive, show constant gratitude and believe in good karma, it will always take care of you. One of the biggest things I am going to miss the most during the hot months right now, is to freely be swim in the pool naked. For 10 years, I loved the innocence and purity of being able to swim naked in the privacy of my pool in the yard.

 

Anyway, thank you to everyone who reads and comments.
