Anyone know of a VERY CHEAP condo for sale on the main floor? I am looking to invest my money in a home rather than rent. My parents always described rent as: Buying a dead horse. I am tired of my dead horse and I want to move. If I was going to work another 6 years, I wouldn't have a problem, but I want to retire soon and want to get settled in for the latter years in my life.
Prices in Utah are outragous, but that is where the family lives and I want to be by family as I age. Buying a condo on retirement wages is tricky. I want to be able to leave the house if a friend says, do you want to go away for the weekend and get away, and the prices for homes are not condusive to my idea of cheap. So the search continues.
It is a waiting game and I never did have a very long patience level. It matches my attention span...short. I have found one I like, but it isn't the perfect one yet. I am still hoping for my lottery ticket to come through. Don't hold your breath though. As a joke, I have an area at work that I call my "Karma Zone". It has a plant and a little fountain and I look at it and hold my fingers together and chant, "I'mmmm going to win the lottery, I'mmmm going to win the lottery." What the heck, it at least amuses me.
