    Ah, I see. Because I don’t have the same problems and suffer exactly like you I MUST be a classist prick who cares only for themselves.

    Since you’re so powerful and wise, and apparently know my whole situation, how about you get over here and rip my land-owning heart out of my chest since apparently that’s the only thing that will appease you.

    Wait, I don’t own land. Because it’s a fucking condo. That we lived in for years until we were in a position to get away from it.

    Holy fuck man. Fuck off and go eat the rich. I’m not your enemy. You are owed no explanation or glimpse into the YEARS of family planning and medical problems we’ve faced to be where we are now. Just because someone is able to squeak their way into the game the world leaders play is not an attack on you.

    Yes actually. Almost everyone who’s toured in person has said the price is the right for the market, but they’re generally not finding specific things they’re looking for. We’re a backup for one person right now, and the things turning people away are out of our control (HOA prices, neighbor to a public service). Couple people went for other properties due to the lack of AC in ours (Would cost $14,000 for a mini-split, so not cost effective while selling) and it’s totally understandable.

    Yup, I’m a total cocroach and the scum of society for wanting to have somewhere that me and my pregnant wife can live with room to grow with the little one.

    I suppose we should decide to not sell and instead rent it out at extreme rates? Or perhaps raise a child in a place who would never have a room of their own?

    I fully acknowledge that I’m privileged to have gotten a decent job and we happened to be in the right place at the right time, but comparing a single family trying to better their circumstances to the oligarchs and international entities who hoard land and homes for profit is a shit thing to do.



  • We’re already lower than the competition. We’re actually showing well, but like others said we’ve got so much unrealistic growth that people just don’t have the money to match the growth over the last few years. Even after selling we’d be nowhere near close to having a proper down payment for a real family home. We’re well priced for the area, we’ve got a new realtor, we did some renovations, and now we’re just waiting for the right person
