Home maintenance
I’m glad I live in an apartment most days. I have very little maintenance besides cleaning the floors and bathrooms. But most of my friends that own houses are spending a ton of money with upkeep. Things like painting, deck staining, patch panels upgrades and the like are very expensive. One of my coworkers is using her income tax for her various projects.
I know a home is your most expensive asset in most cases. I’m just not convinced that home ownership is for me. If I do decide to buy something after I’m done with school, it will be a townhome or condo where I pay maintenance fees. I would rather pay someone to do that stuff for me than do it myself.
