2 thoughts on “Apartment hunting on a budget”
Wow, you and your roommate have such a great relationship built on clear communication–it’s so cool that you two were able to work through your priorities while finding an apartment together.
It’s so easy to want it all, perfect location, price point, and great windows with natural light(!!). Throw another person into the mix, and that makes it doubly difficult. It sounds like your compromise to live further away than you originally wanted really paid off since you’ve been able to use the savings to pay down debt!
Thanks, Becky!
