Live outside Knoxville, TN... own home on an acre lot, 2400 as ft, $1350 mortgage. Best idea to move away from the larger cities. However, early days with the firm outside DC, paid $1450 for 1 room of a 2 bedroom townhouse.

like

Before move:
-San Francisco 2016 - $3960 750 sqft 1BR/1BA on 40th floor with water, gas, and one parking spot included. Located in soma/fidi. This was actually a deal.

After move:
Austin 2016- $1950 1600 sq ft 3BR/2BA. No utilities included, but parking is free and utilities end up being about $200 per month. Located in southwest/oak hill area. Brand new units.

Mortgage & condo fee come to about $1100. 2BR 2BA multi-level with upstairs & downstairs patios + garage...If you’re in the DC Metro Area and are willing to trade a bit of proximity, renting/owning in MD near the beltway isn’t a half-bad idea.

I got a decent deal on a small 1 bed in a luxury building (hell’s kitc). Should I do a 12 month lease or 24m?

Got the rent negotiated to under 3k + free amenities for a year (gym, pool, etc.). I’m afraid rent will atleast go back to the original price (+5%) and then some. The building has some sort of rent control but that’s predicted to go away in less than 1 year as per the lease. The legal rent limit is way higher.

Would love some perspective on renewal experience after 1 year. TIA.

I feel super uncomfortable now because do I essentially lie to my boss because I’m not supposed to talk about it.
