I am in the process of a rebuild myself due to a natural disaster last August. If I didn't already know someone in the industry, I would actually hire a larger company that does restorations nationally or at least, across the Sunbelt region of the country. Locally, there is a lot of competition and unless you already know someone, or several someones who have worked with a local GC, I would leery of hiring someone sight unseen, especially coming from out of state.

My boyfriend and I make 200K combined and live in NJ. We have $1000 in monthly car payments combined. That’s all we owe. Our credit scores are in the 800s. We have 50K to put down on a home. We have done the math and I know we can afford much more but he doesn’t want to buy more than a 400K home. I’m almost positive we can afford 500K and be more than ok. But then he starts to talk about how much kids cost and how we will be house poor and we won’t be able to afford kids. 🤔 Am I insane??
