Also, my mortgage payment will be around $500 less than rent and I'll be building equity instead of pissing it away.
Hoping to buy sometime next year.

yah, i use to live in an apartment when single (a while ago) with gated parking structure, but it was not the same as having my tools 3ft away at any given time.
i always had to lug my tools down there as theft was always a problem in LA.
lift is good. if my HOA didn't have all these rules i would have one too. the one i wanted was only like $2500 too.

yah, i remember i had to pay $200 extra as i had 2 cars back then. it's silly imho. wife and i saved up for a few yrs to make a big down payment (about 50%) on our little home and have been aggressively paying it. will will pay off in 11yrs.
actually i was just talking to her a few days ago just pay the rest off maybe next month depending on how her work goes.
