I have to remember to laugh at my father for bleating at me about buying a condo over the last few years.

thanks ST for reminding me of this opportunity.

I sold my condo in March of last year for 30% more than what I paid for it. Guess it was just in time. -- nm - Dr.Vermin Jan 22, 10:52
I do the same thing to my dad. It's less fun b/c he still has a house on the market, going into the 3rd year. -- nm - TFox Jan 22, 10:38 2
- 3 years? is he refusing to drop the price enough or something? -- nm - loosilu Jan 22, 10:48 1
  - Complicated. It's his soon-to-be-ex-wife's place, so it isn't fully in his control, and she's dumber than her own herpes. -- nm - TFox Jan 22, 10:51
that people didn't see the run up as unsustainable never really ceases to boggle my mind. -- nm - Reagen Jan 22, 10:36 1
- With the market in Victoria the way it is right now, we're probably sitting at dead-even, zero change since we bought - Beryllium Jan 22, 10:39
Dad had been the same way with me and said at Thanksgiving how smart we'd been to wait. - David Jan 22, 10:35 2
- I can't say that my resistence was part of a Grand Plan but it's the best opportunity I've had in ages. - Mel Profit Jan 22, 10:40
- I also had a gut feeling it wasn't right. -- nm - loosilu Jan 22, 10:37
I bought a condo over the last few years. Now I'm tempted to buy a house. - Beryllium Jan 22, 10:34
my dad crunched numbers for me 3.5 years ago and told me it's cheaper to rent. God bless him. -- nm - loosilu Jan 22, 10:33
