What is a small (or big) win you had this week? (Prompt thanks to: Just Rojie)
This sounds pathetic especially considering I had planned to walk every single day no matter how cold it was, I mean allll winter, but I finally walked to work one day last week. One day. But it’s a start.
Now that the temps are warming up, I have no excuses, well other than deep snow. This week I vow to walk at least three of the days.
The other tick mark off my list of to-do’s was I contacted a realtor and now have my rental property on the market to sell. Years ago, if I heard someone had a “rental property”, I would have assumed wow, great money maker! But no, it’s not like that.
I bought the house to live in, myself and the kids when I was single and on my own. Of course I was super proud to have made that purchase completely independent of anyone else, but back in 2014 the housing market was quite different than it is now.
So here’s the thing, prices were high then, prices are low now. Considering that and what I still owe, I won’t pocket much money from it.
I’ve been fortunate enough to always have really great tenants renting from me however when it comes to tax season, because the rent is considered income, I end up paying the tax man dearly. And I hate that. It sucks.
I can’t see the housing market take off and boom again up here, so that’s why I’m getting out now.
