Achievement Unlocked: Buy House

1

So I'm a home owner.

I spent 4 days at home (home home) over the weekend. Caught up with every friend imaginable. Saw my mum, saw my dad, saw my brother and his girlfriend, and had a whole lot of happy times with all of my loved ones. Two of my friends who no longer live there anymore happened upon the town at the same time as well, so many birds were killed with my single stone.

Oh and I bought a house.

This is my first piece of property. The catalyst was to get my mum a place, a place which is more in her affordable price range than where she lives now, one that suits her needs and makes her feel safe and secure. She helped me out with the deposit, and is of course renting it from me. It's the perfect scenario, because back at home, the property market is so affordable, yet there is a shortage of rental availability. Not that I need that as I have a long term tenant who I know will look after the place, and I won't have to have it managed through a real estate agency. And because it's home, I'm still eligible for the grants. AND I can renovate it and make it worth a lot more when the time comes to sell it.

I went to this property investment seminar earlier in the year that seemed like it could have turned out to be a timeshare scam. Sure, they had an interest in running a free seminar, but I'm not an idiot and I didn't sign anything or put any money down. I just sucked up all of the knowledge, and I am now on my way to becoming a legit property mogul.

Downside is that there is no way I can ever kick my FUCKINGASSHOLECUNTFUCK housemates out because I need their cash now. I got home at 1am this morning, after sharing passive-aggressive texts with housemate A over the weekend, and then being assured the place would have had a "big cleanup" done to it. I guess the ice cream wrapper and the ear spacer which were on the lounge room floor when I left on Wednesday morning weren't there, so that was some level of improvement. However the shower door was broken (again) and I'll need to fix it (again). But it's not even just that it's broken. It's breaking it and saying nothing about it. It's breaking it and leaving the broken off pieces on the floor where they fell.

So of course the logical thing to do after 5 hours sleep and 10 hours of work is to come home and clean the house.

Please give me bulk cash so that I may live on my own in the woods.

Are you kidding? They broke the shower door AGAIN?? Wtf are they doing in there, having rough sex? Also congratulations on becoming a home owner! That's so cool and not so easy in Australia's economic state at the moment. I honestly can't believe I missed this blog... I have been thinking to myself over the last few weeks that iv missed some of my favourite members blogs and clicked onto your page to write you a quick note saying that iv noticed your absence and that I hope your well and that you sorted your housemate issues... Then I saw this blog haha it sucks you can't do anything about them now :( you can't find replacements and kick them out?

Haha nice to know you were thinking of me @emmameow. I'm going to blog tonight. I have thought about kicking them out, especially now knowing thet they didn't fill the paperwork out to get themselves on the lease. But it I'd just not a good time for me to be without they extra money and giving them their bond back. I'll update on it all later tonight! After agama of Thrones :)
