Yeah, I managed to buy at the bottom of the interest rates, but before prices truly skyrocketed.

Because of some other life circumstances, I ended up having to move a few months back and finances just weren't there to hold onto it.

Having to rent again has been the most mental health destroying financial back step I think I could have ever taken. I pocketed a nice chunk of change, but it'd only be enough for a ~5% down payment in the current town.

Hoping to get back to owning some day, but not hopeful that that day will be soon.
