I inherited a house for free. Maintenance is a killer.

@Mondayschild Yes, it certainly is. Home ownership isn't all it's cracked up to be.

@Byron8by7 it's hard for a woman alone to get the outside work plus inside painting, taxes. I sometimes feel like I'm drowning.

@Mondayschild I was a homeowner for twenty years (now divorced, living in an apartment). I do not miss "outside" work, calling (and paying) the plumber, painting, etc. Yes, taxes can be very high. My ex is finding these things out in her big fancy house.

@Mondayschild I like your example.

@iMystery it is something for women looking to take a house from a husband in divorce. They will have to eat poptarts and pork and beans.
