A house. It was 2017 and I wanted a place to getaway to in the weekends. Went to look at one and didn’t like it, but there was another nearby that I looked at and called up a realtor to represent me.

A month later I was a homeowner with a low interest loan.

2017-2019 was rough as I was paying for a mortgage and rent.

Housing costs then exploded, I moved into it full time for COVID, refinanced for an even lower interest rate.
