My husband and I started our debt free journey about a year ago. Started with $116k in debt and have come down to a current balance of 83k. We currently rent a 2 bedroom single family home and just through causal looking found a one bedroom condo that would save us $800 alone in rent. Not to mention the landlord would pay pge, we would no longer have to pay trash or for pest control. Total savings per month would be around 1k that we could put towards becoming debt free. I’m just feeling uneasy about going from a 1100 sq ft home to less than 700. Also feeling sad that we’re going to leave the first home we lived in as a married couple..and part of me feels like we’re going backwards after living in a house and going to a condo.
In my head I know it’s for the right reasons and will benefit us in the end. But my heart isn’t into it and that makes me hesitant. Just looking for words of encouragement or advice. Did you give up something you really didn’t want to I’m pursuit of living the debt free dream and if so what was it and was it worth it in the end?
