uggh! Mello roos- what a rip! I’d do almost anything to avoid it since that money is just down the toilet.
Practically speaking, this year is just such a crap shoot. Why not wait until we see in which direction everything is going? There are a lot of pretty reliable sources predicting some pretty dire scenarios in the next year.
I’d love to quit renting and buy another house this year too. I really want a stable home for my kids, but things are just too unpredictable right now.
We may end up moving to a nicer rental this year if anything.
