People really dont appreciate how expensive it is to just maintain a home after you buy it. My $420k hm (Now worth $900k) is just 3,200k sq ft and furniture, painting rms, annual tax increases, tree trimming, driveway mudjacking, squirrel removal, lawn weed service, sprinkler annual maintenance, fireplace maintenance, a fence, new carpeting, new roof, new hvac, new bath fans.. sh*t never ends. I spent $490 last week on new fire detectors because, surprise, they expire after 12 years and start chirping (that's $3.5/mo in perpituity). I know I'm blessed, but it's a full time job.
