\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Early\/mid 20s, \u201cfriendzone\u201d dude, over the course of like 7 years, overcame her defenses and became her man.

Reality TV, so they\u2019re both physically attractive. She\u2019s a personal trainer, he\u2019s a basketball coach.
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Their parents are giving them a huge chunk of change, and they can use it for a down payment or a wedding. His mom was a Realtor, he wants #homeownership<\/a>. She wants a big pretty #wedding<\/a>.

They consider their options!!!
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

They aren\u2019t total idiots, so they got #preapproved<\/a> with a loan officer before tryin to look at houses. Did you know that we do not charge for preapprovals? That’s right, preapproval with us is #free<\/a>! Click here to get your preapproval going immediately<\/a>, and click here if you want to chat about getting preapproved!<\/a> Realtors, we can help you too!<\/a>

So, yeah, they met with both a Realtor and a wedding planner.
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The #weddingplanner<\/a> pitched them on a bunch of dumb things like a #donutwall<\/a> instead of a cake, and a wedding #icesculpture<\/a> with a hole through it that would let guests drink #booze<\/a> out of the bride\u2019s ice sculpture butt (no joke\u2026). The wedding planner spent all but $650 of the allocated budget (innit funny how that worked out?), and tried to make that sound like a good thing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"

The Realtor showed them a series of sensible homes, mostly below their maximum budget, likely to increase in value over time, with some reasonable compromises in terms of wants and needs. A killer shower was super important to him! 2 of the 3 had killer bathrooms, 1 was a dud.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"

–SPOILER ALERT–
<\/em><\/strong>
These people picked the wedding!!! With the donut wall and drinking booze from the bride\u2019s ice sculpture butt, over homeownership. There may also have been something about a venue and music. Whatever. THIS DOES NOTE BODE WELL FOR THEIR CHILDRENS’ FINANCIAL FUTURE!!! They don’t have to get divorced to get a mortgage<\/a>, but who knows!

Hey, so that’s my recap! I do have a question in closing, however, for you my dear reader. Do you want to buy or refinance a home in California, or would you prefer to drink booze out of an ice sculpture’s butt?<\/em><\/strong> Either way, let’s chat!<\/a>
