Incidental Vent: the real estate market has me blue
This post serves mostly as a venting session for me. The real estate market is so amazingly frustrating. I know we bought this house at the absolute tip top of the market high. It could not be helped. We were transferred here when we were transferred. And, my ex would not consider renting for a bit. So, here we are in a situation where we will not even be able to ASK close to what we paid for this monster. It’s beyond irritating. It is disheartening. I resent all the factors that gave that whole false inflation in the real estate market. We all knew what was happening, but we let the powers that be push it until it was at an almost mythical crescendo. Insane.
I think we are all in that situation. I know for my house, it will be another five years before the price gets back to where I paid for it.
