My husband and me rented a big house... beautiful house in an old-style way.
Because it has not been renovated for decades the rent is cheap and we will have the chance to buy it for little money.
The longer I live here however the less I am happy with the house.
Here is my reasons:
1. The house has a big garden which we use for growing fruits and vegetables. It is just to time consuming to my mind. We do have two children (one newborn), hubby works 60 hours a week and I work a few hours a week. We do have a babysitter for a few hours a week.
I do not want to grow food anymore. It is too much stress.
My husband does not take my concerns seriously.
2. The house has one ineffective heating + an oven. The windows are no good (single layer glass). Because the other heating is so ineffective we must use the oven, which is lot of dirt and a lot of work again. Sone of the rooms are very cold.
3. There is also lead paint and asbestos in the house
4. I do not like the region. It is to rural. I would love to live in an more exiting place
Honestly I am feeling like living in the 1970s.
My husband wants to fix the house but working much (and being preoccupied with his OCD) it is a slow process.
We do not have the money to buy new windows or another heating.
On the other side, the house is real big. I never thought we could afford a house that big (not that I ever wanted one), lots of room for our kids to play including the big garden.
My husband really likes the house, which I think gives him a feeling of safety.
I think he really wants to buy it and I am not sure but I think I am opposed to it.
I feel to young to make such an important decision now. I am in my twenties but my husband is older. I am getting cold feet.
Don't have any tangible ideas where else I want to live... just feel like this isn't it. Too much work and to rural.
We aren't rich (though my parents are reasonably well off and said the might want to give us some money, which my husband did not want)... so am I spoiled if I want to live somewhere else?
I appreciate your opinion.
