My family’s condo went from $450 per month maintenance to over $1100! It’s causing some problems and my folks can’t retire anymore, taking odd jobs to make it work
I dont understand, and not your fault it is clearly the environmemt, but retiring with bills that are so variable is insane to me. Here we mostly retire with out own home and not a maintenance contract.
Yeah, agreed. It wasn’t that variable when they started winding down work 😅 idk what they are going to do. I am trying to fix up my house up north to have a little guest space in the basement if they have to come live with me. But my flood insurance just went up 45% too and my town is giving me a hard time with permits due to increased risk of flooding. feeling pretty powerless tbh

Sell it. Sounds like it’s an extra piece anyway.
No they live there full time. Just tried to start retiring last year
