Finding the Right House House
We’re doing the ten days to financial independence and something that has been repeated to me from those who have retired early is the importance of being savvy about three major expenses: housing, transportation, and food.
We’ll go over the last two later this week, but today I want to go over housing, specifically how and why we bought our current house.
Even though I thought we did pretty well with buying our first place, we’ve learned quite a bit in the time since.
