How much in reserves

Any special assessments

Can you rent it, and what are the restrictions

Last time major shit like roof and asphalt were done

the hoa's reserves or mine? i have no idea what i'm doing, parents thought real estate was beneath them and hence passed on no knowledge. this is a first for me personally.

no special assessments.

yes. main restriction on renting is no UG's, which i'm fine with.

roof realtor said 90's. the place was built in the 50's. i didn't ask about asphalt.

The HOA's reserves. If it's low it means you'll have a special assessment if something big breaks in the building.

Find out when the last major work to sewer lines happened. I know one building where everyone had to rip out newly renovated kitchens so they could replace the drainage stack.

Is it in a vacation area where people would be incentivized to add more interior sleeping space for $$$? Saw a different place where some owners added “lofts” in their living rooms and the whole building was structurally fucked

Aren't you in the south? Even N. Alabama is like 7hr from here

But yes, as a rabid MDE fan I've been watching Scuffed Realtor religiously, I could help you out.

So let me get this straight: You are an adjunct with no job security. You still have delusions of a real academic job. You have no savings. And you're buying a condo when both real estate prices and mortgage rates are sky high? Did I get this right? What could possibly go wrong with this plan? JFC.

To point out just one obvious problem, what the fuck are you going to do if you get a tenure track offer on the other side of the country next fall? Just try to sell the condo at a huge loss? Did you think this through at all?

you got part of this very wrong: i have no delusion of a real academic job. i'm not getting an offer on the west coast or anywhere for a full TT job.

not to be mean, but the other parts of his poast are very valid. what happens if something happens and you need to do some repairs on it. would you even be able to meet the deductible if your insurance covers it? it seems you are buying with no money left over.

Well, if you prefer, I could have been more realistic and said, "What are you going to do when your department's budget gets cut and they shitcan your ass and you have to accept another $20k adjunct position in rural Alabama?" But I was trying not to be a dick (or an even bigger dick, at any rate).
