this is just getting so much worse...

FH and I realized last week that there is just no way we will get approved for the mortgage we need until i graduate (december)...so we started looking into apartments in Hudson County (NJ...FH is a cop...so he has to stay there, or close to it)....So we found a few that we really but....
The rent is about $1940-$2000 p/m
Then for 2 cars to park its about $200-280 p/m
Then to have a DOG there...$50 p/m
Utilities $100 p/m....



This is costing just as much as a f'in mortgage!!!!! If we can afford this...we can afford a house!!!
I *hate* the banks!!!

It's so stupid...I'm making OK money now, but it will be SO much better when i graduate...it's only a few months away..then boards...then wedding. I'm hoping to be settled somewhere BEFORE my boards....so i have one less thing to worry about.....

did i mention i hate this and i'm miserable!?!?!?

Definetly give him a call. There might be something he can do. He has theoption of using all different types of loans b/c he is a broker not a bank
