And congrats to your daughter!

Thank you! Good to see she is finally moving her way through adulthood.

She is closing right now, very proud of her. Now let's see how much shit she asks me to do, wants to replace the roof with metal and build a new deck on the back. I have a feeling I am going to get roped into it.

When I bought my first house someone threw us a housewarming party. Mostly it was the typical stuff but a few, smarter, people got me a shovel, rake, socket and screwdriver set, etc. No one got me a plunger and that would have been sweet.

But nothing better than the essential tools that'll last a lifetime.

Should have come to Maine! At least the good part north of Portland.

The grant doesnt have to be repaid unless I sell the house or refinance it.

I will have to mention that to her and look at the documents further, it's through Maine State Housing, thanks for the heads up!

I thought you all lived in houses made of shell and barnacle.

Any time you have a manufactured home its a tougher loan to get done. Lots of cya. Then its rural, so what do you compare it to. Another underwriting challenge.

Glad she got it done. Feels good owning your own place.

Same, she could only get a 20 year note on it, interest is 6.25 I believe. What we were up against was the bank doesn't loan on a manufactured home that is older than 20 years. It turned 20 on 12/31/24. So it was a push to get everything in for the loan approval before that date.

Manufactured, berms, geodesic domes, a-frames, anything non-standard or prebuilt in some way is always going to be a pain. Weird special rules, etc.

Trying to get insurance on our house was a pain in the balls.
