A fridge.ok so what's gonna be your first big boy toy for the garage
The cheaper house doesn't actually have a garage. It's more like a shed big enough for a car. Definitely not a stand around your engine with beer and friends kind of place.
i would need a full sized garage so i could work on my cars
. but it is what it is

I'm renting a 2-car garage right now to store two of four vehicles and do mechanical work. The bigger house I'm going for has a slightly smaller garage I can work in if there's only one vehicle in there. The smaller house would let me just ditch the old cars when they finally crap out for good and ultimately buy a new truck or something. I could anyway with the bigger house but I'd need a good size down payment on the truck first.i would need a full sized garage so i could work on my cars
i have a 4 car garage and there's still not enough room to work on cars
not that i would want to do that when it's over a 100 out
. i remember living back east we had a huge ass garage you could work on two cars at the same time plus have room for a few fridges for beer

Well it was what I could "afford" at that point & time though next time maybe I'll just get me a Cardboard box and $ave on those ridiculous "Rent Payments"...
Then again this is freaking AMERICA the only "Industrialized" nation where we are expected to pay TAXES and get little if anything in return.....along with a system and an accomplice Ideologically "brainwashed" populace that "perpetuates" such ignorance
you picked up on what I was saying there. And i to agree with you as I am not gonna live in a place where you can't work on your car can't park rvs in the driveway and get fines for having weeds in your yard let alone have them fine you for not painting your home then let them pick and choose the colors that you can use ECT ECT. I would not want to pay an how as I feel it's a money grab. We really don't need hoas we need better code enforcement!!! I can understand condo fees since they do include services and some ultilites. And an hoa can for close on you faster than the bank can thanks to our wonderful goverment.
i don't need a bigger house i need a bigger garage for my children since i will be adopting more.
since i will be adopting more.

If I get the bigger house I can use it for photography. Have had a lot of requests to do boudoir photos but nowhere to do them. This entire house could be a set.
i say go for it you could wind up making some good money in your spare time to and who knows you might make more than you do driving
. more money for your kids. we have a 12000 sq ft house but we only have a 4 car garage WTF up with that.

That big house sold before I got my preapproval. But that's kind of a good thing because my gut tells me I might have been in over my head with it. Maybe not the mortgage itself but upkeep and repairs and such. Parking/access wasn't really very good either if I'm honest.
