I got my property for a steal … but the breakdown. Also, it’s a 3 family tenement.

Closing costs 12K (closing cost inclusive of portion of down payment) I can’t recall the actual break down b/c I put down a certain amount then had a subordinate loan for the remaining 12K at 2%
Rate 2.875

Hi everyone. I’m new here but I think I’ll get a lot of really good feedback. I work in government procurement. I worked remote during the pandemic and now my manager cannot see his way to letting us work from home. Our department is the only one in the organization that is in the office all the time. It is really hurting morale and, personally, making me look for something different. What is everyone’s experience with old school management? Thank you!

Hi Guys,
Can anyone help me with an information on how EY INDIA provides variable to employees. I know it's 0-20%, so is it monthly ? or what kind of measures they consider in order to provide variable pay.
Also, suppose the package is 6 Lakhs, so can we say that the package is 600000 + 20% of 6 Lakhs = 720000. (As EY has 20% variable Pay)

Thanks in Advance !

Hey all I have an opportunity to buy a vacation home as a private sale from my parents (they are buying a new house in that area and need to sell the old one), it is waterfront property in NH 10 minutes from Mt Sunappee. I am concerned that making this purchase may make me a little cash poor in the short term, but still manageable. Would it make more sense to rent out the property through a rental company that included insurance and cleaning or to put it on airbnb?

We have fully renovated our house, now nearly everything is new. new windows sidings all interior finishes newly expanded yard etc. we are on market for a while now and haven’t received an offer we wanted. Feedbacks are no grass in backyard and price is high in the neighborhood. However almost none of our neighbors’ house have been renovated like ours and our appraisal came higher. Any advise to promote sale? Do you guys really think this low maintenance yard is the deal breaker? Twin citie MN

Hi 🐠, need your help/suggestions. We moved into our new townhouse 4 months ago and I’ve been noticing a car parked outside with 3-4 (young folks) people sitting in it for past 3-4 weeks. Today they took it to another level when someone from that group was peeing right in front of my backyard. When I was about to talk to them they left in a hurry. What should be doing? I’m first time homeowner so want to make sure I’m not doing anything wrong

What are the best ways to reduce my out of pocket expenses when buying, this can be negotiating options or other ideas?

First time home buyer, advice needed for pending purchase

I found a house that has the features and parameters I need.
It's one of the smaller houses in the neighborhood and has not recently remodeled for sale.
It is therefore a around 25% cheaper asking price than some other recent listings in same area.
I got pre approved for thrall asking price with 10% down
Since it does need some bit or remodeling that I would like to do before moving in, what's the best way to go about doing that?
