Selling Your Home on Your Own Vs with a Realtor
When selling a home, you have to make a lot of decisions.
One of the most significant decisions when selling property is whether to handle the selling process yourself or hire a realtor.
Selling directly can save money! But when selling with a realtor there may be some conditions you might need to fill.
Every option has its own advantages and drawbacks; knowing the differences can help make an informed decision.
Let's explore the pros and cons of both the methods in order to a successful home sale.
Tumblr media
For sale by owner(FSBO)
Selling a house as a owner you have take on all responsibility be it marketing, negotiating, and closing the deal.
Homeowners seeking to save on realtor commission fees might prefer this route, and who feel feel confident that they can handle the selling process themselves.
As an added benefit, FSBO sellers have greater control of the entire selling process - from setting the listing price, scheduling showings, and negotiating directly with potential buyers.
However, when opting for for-sale-by-owner (FSBO), there can be significant challenges involved.
First and foremost, selling a home is a complex process that involves legal intricacies and paperwork that can be overwhelming for someone without real estate expertise.
Pricing the property correctly is crucial, as overestimating the value can lead to extended listing periods, while underestimating it may result in a financial loss.
Marketing is another area where FSBO sellers often struggle.
Without access to the extensive networks and resources that realtors possess, reaching a broad pool of potential buyers can be challenging. A lack of visibility in the market may lead to a more extended selling process and ultimately a lower sale price.
Selling with a Realtor
Realtors possess expert market knowledge, negotiation abilities and an expansive network of contacts that can help a seller achieve greater savings.
Working with a realtor offers numerous advantages, one being their expertise in accurately pricing your property.
Real estate professionals conduct in-depth market analyses that consider comparable sales, market trends and property condition to determine the optimal listing price for their listings.
But they also charge a lot of commission and fees. So what can you do?
In addition to selling your house by yourself or with a relator, there is one more option that is gaining popularity.
Cash home buyers
Cash home buyers can close the deal much faster than traditional buyers, often within a week or two. beneficial for homeowners who need to sell house fast in alabama due to relocation, financial difficulties, or other urgent reasons. Since you're dealing directly with the buyer, you can save on realtor commissions, which typically range from 5% to 6% of the sale price.
Cash buyers are usually willing to purchase properties in their current condition.
Conclusion
Whether or not to sell a home by For Sale By Owner (FSBO) depends on many factors related to experience, time limitations and comfort with the selling process.
Selling without assistance from a realtor may be beneficial in saving commission fees however FSBO requires effort, market knowledge and marketing knowhow in order to succeed successfully.
Selling with a cash home buyers Mobile offers greater expertise, convenience and market reach compared to selling on your own. And also no Commision or Fees!

Let’s Start the New Year Right
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Spencer Reid x fem!reader
18+ minors DNI
desc: Spencer and reader get invited to a chill, casual NYE party. But things heat up right at the stroke of midnight.
cw: food mention, Spencer is a little awkward in the beginning, oral (f receiving), unprotected sex, semi-public sex (in a bathroom)... Let me know if I missed anything
wc: 1667
...
“I can’t go dressed like this? People will laugh at me.” 
Spencer looks himself over in the mirror for the tenth time, running a hand down his sweatshirt. It was New Years Eve and you two weren’t doing anything too crazy, just spending time at your friend Andies house with a few others. She’d just bought said house and was desperate for you and the rest of your friends to see it. And what better time than New Year's Eve?
“They will not laugh at you. Andie said she wanted everyone to be casual and casual means jeans and sweatshirts,” you called from inside your closet. “And we’ll be out by the fire. You’ll be more comfortable like this. Trust me.” 
You peak around the corner to his portion of the closet, a small smile tugging at your lips. He looks cute, more dressed down than you usually see him. In fact, this is the most you’ve seen him in the past three weeks. Serial killers don’t take breaks, even during the holidays. So off he and the team went to bum-fuck-nowhere Alabama and missed Christmas.
It was disappointing to say the least. 
But it was his job, something he warned you of previously. However, it didn’t mean him missing important days didn’t hurt. But you sucked it up and smiled through it. Plus, it didn’t matter. He was home and he was safe. 
“I do trust you. But I don’t want to be underdressed.” He sighs moving to grab his tennis shoes, sitting on the little poof seat you insisted on buying. (And that he secretly loved. Not that he’d admit it.) 
You pull your hair out of the back of your sweatshirt, smoothing it down and grabbing a warm hat. “You won’t be. This isn’t like Rossi’s where we dress to the nines and get drunk on champagne.” 
You see him grin as he ties his shoes, a small blush rising on his ears. 
“Yeah he was sad we were coming this year. I, however, am excited we aren’t going. I have spent more than enough time with all of them. They’ll survive without me for a night.” 
You giggle, walking towards him and hugging him from behind. “Yes, baby, your friends will survive without you. You’re all mine tonight.” You kiss his cheek before straightening and checking your phone, “we should head out, sweetheart. Andie will be pissed if we’re late.” 
The drive to Andies was short, filled with Spencer's long winded explanation about why you and he bought your house at the ‘most perfect time’. You loved listening to him ramble, even if half the time he spoke gibberish. You were thankful you could google some of the super big words he used. 
The second you’re parked outside the house, big, beautiful and full of holiday cheer, you see Spencer tense. You’d think after six years together, he’d be more calm around your friends. They helped him with the proposal after all and he still has the group chat. The group chat where they send him memes he doesn’t understand. However, no matter the time, he isn’t the most comfortable with anyone but you. And more so in your bedroom. 
You find it… endearing to say the least. 
You reach over and grab his hand, squeezing it three times i am here. “Ready?” 
He squeezes back and nods, “I am… I think.” 
It’s all you need before getting out and never once letting go of Spencer’s hand. 
Andie stands at the door, smile on her face, two glasses of punch in her hands. “There is my best friend and her hot as fuck fiance!”
Spencer practically cringes at her words, never being one who could handle a compliment. Even if he was the most beautiful human you’ve ever seen. 
“Hi! Sorry we’re late. We had a late night. You know how it is, serial killers killing during the holidays. Dr. Reid forever having to save the day.” You pat his chest, looking up at him fondly. 
He loves when you look at him like that, eyes so wide, filled to the brim with love. He kisses your head and 
Andie fake gags, handing you the drinks in her hand. “Yes, yes. Get inside before we let the kitten out and before the cold air comes in.” 
You sip it, the vodka making your chest feel warm. Spencer looks down at the cup before looking back at you, “I can’t drink. Want this?” You nod, taking it and pouring it into your cup. “A-andie do you have water? Bottled? I don’t like sink water and fridge water tastes funny so bottled is better. Even though it’s not good for the environment.
“But it’s not really us that needs to worry. It’s the famous people who really pollute the envi-” 
Andie cuts him off, “Spencie baby, you don’t have to explain this to me. I have plenty of bottled water. Want a cold one or a room temp one?” 
Spencer curls his lips over his teeth, a small blush creeping up his neck, “cold is fine. Thank you, Andie.” 
“You’re welcome sweet thing.” She digs in her fridge and finds the bottle, handing it to him. “Now, time for a tour.” 
… 
It takes a good few minutes for her to show you both around the house, making sure she explains every single detail even down to the persian rug her current boyfriend bought her when he went to visit his mother. 
Spencer, of course, went on and on about this, that and the third. It was cute. 
But soon you were in Spencer's lap, staying warm by a fire and roasting a marshmallow while Spencer got the chocolate and graham crackers ready. You were two drinks and three shots in, happily buzzed but not even close to drunk. 
“You are so hot when you open chocolate. S’anyone ever told you that?” You say it quietly, not wanting to embarrass him in front of anyone. 
He smirks, using the top graham cracker to slide the toasted marshmallow off of the stick and smoosh it between the other cracker and chocolate. “No one has ever told me that. But there is a first for everything.” 
He takes the first bite before handing you the rest. You pout a little and he laughs. “You ate my smore! Not fair.” 
He kisses you, lips brushing over yours gently, “I will make you another when you finish that one.” “What happened to my shy boy? Getting bossy out here.” You smirk, knowing you’re pushing his buttons.
“I didn’t hear you complaining last night when I fucked you into the mattress.” He says right in your ear, nipping at it slightly. 
You shiver, squirming in his lap. “You-you can’t do this to me. We can’t fuck here.” 
He kisses your temple, “there are four bathrooms here. We totally could. They all lock, I made sure.” 
Andie claps her hands, “ten minutes till midnight!” 
Spencer grips your thigh, “what a way to ring in the new year? Me buried inside you.” 
You cross your legs, trying anything to get some friction. 
“They’ll notice, Spence.” You look around, no one is paying attention to you, most of them sucking face with their dates.
“Oh baby, they won’t notice.” 
Before you know it, your pants and underwear are on the bathroom floor, and Spencer's face buried in your cunt. You bite your fist to quiet the moan. For some reason, it was extremely hot getting eaten out with the possibility of someone hearing you. But that didn’t mean you wanted to get caught. 
“So pretty bunny.” He purrs from below you. He pushes two fingers inside you, easily opening you up. He knows your body better than you do, making mental notes of every little moan, gasp, and sigh that leaves your lips. Because of this it isn’t long before he has you falling over the edge, somehow keeping your moans quiet.
“Time,” He asks as he stands, towering over you.
You check your phone with shaky fingers, “11… 11:50” 
Spencer pulls at his belt with fervor, pushing his pants down till they pool at his ankles. “Gotta keep you quiet for another ten minutes.” 
His lips are on yours, swallowing your moans as he pushes all the way inside you. He doesn’t waste time, his hips snapping against yours. His lips travel from your lips and down your neck, moving your sweatshirt to the side to suck hickies where no one can see them. 
‘Just for me,’ he’d always say. ‘Only for me.’ 
“Spencer, please.” How you manage to whisper it is beyond you. But it doesn’t matter with the way he’s moving. 
“Shh… I’ve got you, bunny.” He snaps his hips faster. 
Your second orgasm comes right at 11:58. And it isn’t long before you can hear your friends counting down. 
Ten.
“Fuck bunny. Feel so good.” 
Nine
“S-spencer…” 
Eight
His hand covers your mouth, muffling your growing moans. 
Seven 
“I know you don’t want to get caught.” 
Six 
“‘Specially not so close to midnight. Right?” 
Five 
You shake your head no. Eyes staying locked with his.
Four
A wicked smirk crosses his lips, his confidence growing. 
Three
“S’what I thought.” 
Two 
His thrust grow more and more sloppy and before long his head falls into your shoulder and his orgasm rips through him, spilling inside you. 
One
His kiss is hard, hands on the sides of your face while he makes out with you, riding out the rest of his orgasm. He’s panting as he pulls back, Spencer's forehead resting on yours. 
“Happy New Years, sweet angel.”
...
I hope you enjoyed! This is my first fic in almost a year. Im nervous to say the least lmao. I love you all ❤️

I grew up in a haunted house and I didn’t notice
This is not a story about boo ghosts or shadow people. If it were, I would have figured it out, at least.
When I say "I grew up in a haunted house and I didn't notice," you have to understand that there was a lot going on with this house. It's not the house that I've written about currently living in, the one with newspaper and soda cans stuffed where insulation should have been, the one with constant home-repair calamities. No, my childhood home was a crumbling pile of red brick built in the 1920s. Narnia was in the backyard, and the back deck was my ship on the high seas. The house was surrounded by banks of flowers, lilies and irises and roses, and it was full of creepy shit I didn’t even blink at. I loved it.
It didn't look haunted, or even particularly historical. It was almost disappointingly normal—I lived on a street with a house that had a turret, for God's sake. No, it was just old and small. There's a lot of pre-Depression houses getting torn down in these suburbs; my town has been awash in construction for the last 20-30 years as people buy up cheap old houses, raze them, and squeeze mini-mansions onto their tiny lots, all to get their kids into a good school system. It gives me a chill to think of it, but yeah, that might happen to my childhood home someday, small and plain and unassuming as it is. My pirate ship has already been renovated into an extra bedroom, the new owners told us.
When we moved into the house in 1983, though—it had clearly been renovated in the '60s or '70s; the wallpaper was hideous, and the upstairs bathroom was carpeted. Shag-carpeted. The house had closets the size of shoeboxes; my bedroom, the one with the peach wallpaper, didn't even have one. The room down the hall had four, including one cut into the wall, under a slanted ceiling tucked beneath the roof, that looked like you'd stash a witch there when the Salem HOA came by. There was a fan in the attic—well, first of all, the attic was just one more room on that upstairs floor. It was directly across from the (carpeted) bathroom, and that room (lit by one ominous, hanging bulb) was just a short corridor with storage spaces on either side, hidden behind big sliding doors. And the fan at the very end was built into the brick outer wall of the house. Like our house was functionally open to the elements, between the blades of that fan. I have no idea what the fuck anyone was thinking when they built that, and how the fuck anyone kept the wildlife out.
We certainly couldn't. Squirrels lived in the roof and bowled with acorns. It was like listening to a pinball machine at night. I have an abject horror of cockroaches because sometimes an adventurous one would fall off the ceiling in the middle night, onto me, while I was trying to sleep. (Like, try to imagine that—you’re awakened from a dead sleep by a vague, paper-light skittering sensation up and down your arm. When Pennywise comes to me, he will show up as a cockroach.) But wait! There was more! We had herds of crickets in the basement that felt compelled to jump at people. Sometimes there were centipedes! Those were polite enough to only come out at night. In the dark.
By the way, that basement was totally unfinished. I don't mean that it just had exposed beams or concrete walls. I mean that the basement had uneven, mostly shoulder-high masonry walls, and then it was just open on three sides, extending under the rest of the house. Like just dry red Alabama earth and rocks and grainy dust tumbling around in this vast, dark—it wasn't even a crawl space, a child could have stood upright in it. This child? Oh fuck no. And the washer and dryer were down there. I had to creep down there, down a rickety plank staircase, past the staring dark caverns of my own basement, through a low-lying fog of aggressive crickets, go BEHIND THE STAIRCASE, and then do my laundry there. There was also a firewood pile by an old fridge, and only God knew what was under that.
None of this was haunted. All of this was completely normal to me. This isn't even the haunted part.
So let's go back upstairs. The ground floor was lovely, homey, fine except for the time the living room ceiling fell out due to water damage. Upstairs was where it got weird. I've talked about being mildly bullied as an unknowingly autistic child; home was where I felt safe. In my bedroom upstairs, I had all those My Little Ponies and my easel with all my crayon-drawn fantasy maps and all the stories I wrote. It didn't matter if roaches fell on me in the deeps of the night; home, that's where I was happy. So when I was a young kid and I felt like a vampire was following me down the hall at night, I assumed I was just being silly.
I was aware of vampires in the 1980s as, like, the Count on Sesame Street (ah ah aaah), and Count Chocula, and Count Duckula on Nickelodeon, and the Bunnicula books that I loved. As a kid, I wasn't aware of movies like The Lost Boys or Near Dark, or any vampires that weren't broad caricatures of the Bela Lugosi look. I loved Spooky Stuff—I'm from the Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark generation—but vampires didn't scare me.
But when I had to get up in the middle of the night to go down the hall to the (carpeted) bathroom, I always had the sensation that something was following me as I was going back to my room. Something Dark. Not terribly tall, maybe not even much taller than me. And somehow, I visualized this deep in my mind as a vampire. Kind of a silly one, you know, the white-tie formal wear and the ribbon medal and the cape. I wasn't desperately scared that a Chocula was behind me, but I knew that I needed to get back to my room quick, and, at all costs, I must never look back. I must never look over my shoulder or else I would See It, something silly massing in the dark—and, brother, Eurydice would have been safe with me. Never stop running, never look back.
And I'm sure all kinds of kids develop little superstitions like this. It's probably a developmental thing, like having an imaginary friend (which I also had at some point). Even as a seven year old, I was thinking, This is silly, I'm just making it up (but not looking back costs nothing. Not looking at monsters is free). And I continued to think this, until I laughingly told my younger sister this at Sunday Family Dinner one night. We were both in our thirties at that point. And my sister started crying. Like just staring at me in wide-eyed horror, her eyes filling with tears. And she told me that when she had a bedroom upstairs, there was Something in there.
I won't belabor the exact setup, but at one point, we got it into our heads that we'd like to switch bedrooms, just for a change. I was 14, and I moved to her ground floor bedroom with the flowered white wallpaper and the big bright windows, and she went upstairs and took my room with the peach wallpaper and the cool slanted roof-ceiling (and no closet).
There were three other rooms on that upper floor (and I promise you this is important):
1) One was a small, windowless room that we used as a playroom, with weird cerulean blue carpet and sky blue wallpaper, one dim light fixture, and a little door in the wall that led to dark nothing. Like, you opened it, and you were confronted by a mass of pipes and machinery and just enough space to edge leftwards in the dark. Towards what? Fuck if I know, I sure as hell wasn't going in there. I think it was supposed to be for access to the HVAC system. I don't know. It was fucked. But when I was a young child, I had cooked for my baby dolls at our plastic play kitchen right next to that door, nbd, because apparently you put me in a creepy situation and I just go, yeah, we live like this now.
(I had not ever felt alone in that playroom, but I had also been too young to articulate that. Of course I wasn’t alone! I was with my dolls!)
2) The next room was the (shag-carpeted) bathroom. It had a big mirror over the sink counter, very typical, facing a vertical mirror that was behind the bathroom door. I've heard two mirrors facing each other can create a portal for the spirits, if you believe in that kind of thing. I once did the "Bloody Mary" thing there and nothing happened, idk.
3) The next room was the bedroom with four closets, where an older family member lived with us, and when she moved out, my sister moved to that room.
?) The fourth room, not really a room, was the dark, narrow attic.
So, Grownup Family Dinner at my current house, a few years ago: my sister told me that Something had lived in the Four Closets Bedroom with her. I'm not sure if she actually said it lived in the little Hide A Witch closet or if it was just kind of... ambient. I don't know what it looked like, or if we're talking about ghosts or Something... Darker, or what. I don't think she's entirely sure herself. She doesn't like to talk about it in detail a whole lot. What I know is that she felt it was there, and she had chosen that room to sleep in as a young teenager, and not a lot of sleep was to be had.
"I never really sensed anything, like… demonic," I said, puzzled. "Just the Chocula that followed me." And my sister was like, ARE YOU LISTENING TO YOURSELF??
"What about Rebecca??" she sputtered.
Oh, yeah: Rebecca. (A name I've changed at my sister's request.) I had a friend as a teenager who liked to mess around with ouija boards (AM I LISTENING TO MYSELF?), and we did a session at her house one time wherein we discovered that the ghost of a girl? young woman? named Rebecca lived (so to speak) at my house, and she had been murdered by her boyfriend. How we arrived at these specifics, I don’t remember, but I had told my sister about it because I thought it was interesting, and also, I was kind of a shit. My friend also decided she had her own ghost named Dusty. It was all one big [citation needed, footage not found], but it was also part of our family lore.
So, many years later, my sister told me that she had long felt—without knowing about the Chocula—that there were two spirits on the upper floor of our childhood home: the dark one, and a younger, lighter one. I sat there at the kitchen table and thought about it.
"You know, I did kind of feel like there was someone up there, when I was a kid," I said. "Sometimes I would go into the attic, and it felt scary, but like there was something there watching that was okay? Like having a lamp on in a dark room, kind of. It’s weird, because it’s just a feeling, I remember it very clearly, but I didn’t really question it or wonder."
I thought a bit more.
"Oh yeah—there was also the time I just really felt compelled to go color in the playroom by myself at midnight, and it kind of felt like someone was there."
My sister stared at me, saucer-eyed, pale. Like I'm not sure I had ever seen anyone "go white" until that moment.
"Yeah, I just woke up and had this idea—I was maybe nine years old? That it would be super cool to do stuff at night when I was supposed to be asleep, so I got a flashlight and went into the playroom—"
"IN THE DARK??"
"Well, yeah. If I had turned on the light, someone would have seen it and told me to go back to bed. So I set this flashlight on the floor and got out the crayons and colored in one of my coloring books a while. Maybe the She-Ra one?"
Thinking back on it now—of course I was sitting right by the scary door. I think we all, you and I, saw that coming.
"And I had the same feeling I had in the attic. Like someone was sitting on the floor across from me, friendly, I guess I would say female, and it was cool. Like, it was chill."
My sister looked like she was about to pass out.
"I don’t really know how I could sense this then but not really say anything about it, or even think about it, until now," I said, shrugging. "I’m probably imagining it."
I’ll throw in here that one of the dolls I had in that room was a Raggedy Ann. Like, just for extra hilarity, Wee Cleo is hanging out, coloring, at midnight, with a ghost and a fuckin’ Annabelle.
So: My sister is adamant that our childhood home was haunted. And apparently I was entirely blasé about it (maybe possessed?), but then, I was dealing with a lot of suburban wildlife. My problems with that house were far more immediate. And crawly. Nor can we prove that the house was haunted—I certainly haven’t looked up any homicide records—and I don’t think that Vibes, In Retrospect, are valid evidence on my part. But I find it interesting that I knew what she was talking about. I find it interesting that I was like, "Yeah, that was chill." And I find it interesting that when I went away to college, and I lived in a dorm suite where sometimes I’d be the only person there while my roommates were out,
I remember noticing that it was the first time I’d ever felt alone in a room.
Who was that imaginary friend I'd had?
--
I asked my sister to read over this, partly because I wanted to see if she’d be willing to describe the Something Dark.
"Oh, I’ll tell you anything you want," she texted back, "but that’s not how it happened."

This is a very long and rambling post about our house-buying process in Alabama, so here's a cut for courtesy.
We are in the process of buying a house in Prattville, AL which is a suburb of Montgomery.
We flew into Atlanta on Saturday, rented a car, and drove to my parents' house, which is an hour from Montgomery. We spent all day Sunday, Monday, and Tuesday touring houses. I had no idea what to expect. Unlike when we bought our previous two houses, we didn't really have a favorite going into this process. We also had many more constraints and mismatched desires, as well. And the market is much more expensive. We also think that we might be in this house for many years, maybe forever. There was just so much pressure to make the right choice, but I didn't even really know what would be right for us. I *did* know we couldn't buy a historic home in Montgomery because Montgomery public schools are too dysfunctional and underfunded to accommodate our ASD kid. That left the suburbs, and we have never lived in a suburb before.
I've been having a low-key identity crisis about all this for a while because for 20 years I've defined my adult personality based on living in urban and walkable communities. I had to ask myself if I would be okay living in "the country" or in a new-build community with an HOA next to a strip mall. I asked myself why I had constructed my identity the way I had. What was wrong with living in a brand new house? Why couldn't I be okay in a small neighborhood 15 minutes outside of town? I'm still not sure I know the answers to these questions, especially the question of why I don't like brand new tract housing, but it became clear to me while we were touring all these houses that I absolutely needed to live in a neighborhood that is big and safe enough (by which I mean it has sidewalks) to walk for 45 minutes or run for 30 minutes. So that ruled out country houses. We saw a lot of nice and very expensive tract houses in giant new neighborhoods, and although these houses do not feel like they're *for me* that is honestly just a matter of not liking their vibes rather than any real reasoning of logic or consequence.
Dominic and I also had differing values and desires going into this house hunt. He wanted something newer and much bigger. He wanted a bonus room and four bedrooms. He wanted a big master suite with a big shower and big closets and lots of storage space. He had even gotten really close to building a new house, and we did a test build with builders and had a house, floor plan, and everything picked out. I wasn't super comfortable with this, which I know is crazy because it's such a big commitment, but I went along with it because it was difficult for me to articulate what *is* important to me. Dominic was just a lot more certain about what he wanted, and I trust him, so I decided to be okay with trying something new. But then at the last minute he decided he didn't want to build with this company in that specific location, and that's when we realized we were going to have to fly down here and house hunt.
We saw so many houses. Most of them looked the same. They were all expensive and nice. We looked at a lot of properties with pools because that was one thing we agreed was important to us. We also looked at a couple of rambling old ranches near the historic downtown. They were both intriguing but too much of a project, especially at their price points. We also looked at a newer house near downtown as well. The owner was there for that tour, and she talked about how cute downtown Prattville is (it's just an L-shaped strip, but it *is* very cute). She said there were a couple of nice parks nearby and her family was always walking all over the neighborhood and walking downtown for parades and festivals and even tubing in a nearby creek. I didn't like her house very much, but I loved the idea of living so close to the historic downtown area, and the neighborhood is big and mixed with newer and older homes. The landscaping is established with trees and bushes and grasses and flowers.
I was interested in this house based on the location, but Dominic didn't really care for the house, and it really was just okay. I didn't feel great about it or bad about it. It was just a house built in 2012 or so, and it looked like every other house we had looked at except slightly smaller. So I let the idea of living near downtown go, and we kept looking.
But the very last house we looked at was another 70s ranch in the same neighborhood. I was certain it would be weird or need a lot of work or be too small for Dominic. And then it was kind of perfect. It was updated enough with new paint, appliances, and granite countertops, had original hardwood floors, a formal sitting room with glass French doors, a living room with a fireplace, a dining room, an eat-in kitchen, four bedrooms, three full baths, and a pool in the backyard. It even had a built-in wet bar in the living room, a period detail which I found hilarious and charming. It was also priced dramatically lower than the other houses we had seen, and it was one hilly but walkable mile from the historic downtown, which is comparable to our house in Omaha.
To me, it immediately felt like home. Like, this was emotional logic, not rational logic. It was not Dominic's first choice, and not nearly as big and updated as he wanted, but he agreed to it, and now we're in the process of buying it. Of course, it could fall through, but our offer has been accepted and we've put earnest money down and have a closing date. And I genuinely love this house. I was not expecting to feel anything but acceptance about this move. To feel genuine excitement about the very last house we looked at is amazing. This 70s ranch would be nothing special to many people, but to me it's wonderful. I hope we're able to close on it in May, and I hope my family and I will be very happy there for many years.

BREAKING: In response to the GOP's anti-voter ACE Act, Democrats are re-introducing the Freedom to Vote Act, which actually helps people vote.
Tumblr media
What is the Freedom to Vote Act?
The Freedom to Vote Act is a revised voting rights bill based on the main pillars of the For the People Act.
Protecting the right to vote, ending partisan gerrymandering, and tackling dark money in politics.
It is the most important voting rights bill since the Civil Rights era.
The Freedom to Vote Act tackles corruption by ensuring that our government works for us.
Combats dark money loopholes that allow billionaires to buy our elections
Prevents foreign interference in U.S. campaigns
Strengthens campaign finance enforcement
Creates an innovative small donor financing option for House elections
The Freedom to Vote Act creates national standards for voting, ensuring all 50 states have...
Automatic voter registration
Same-day voter registration
Online voter registration
Early Voting Guaranteed two weeks incl. nights and weekends
The Freedom to Vote Act will protect our right to vote.
Expands no-excuse vote by mail for all eligible voters
Gets rid of long lines at the polls (and end unjust bans on food + water being distributed!)
Curbs discriminatory voter purges
Restores voting rights to people formerly incarcerated
The Freedom to Vote Act is essential for fair districting and will ban partisan gerrymandering.
Prevents subversion of the electoral process.
Protects election officials and poll workers
Combats mishandling of ballots and other sensitive materials
Republican States have passed almost 100 laws rolling back voting rights in the 10 years since the Supreme Court gutted the Voting Rights Act in Shelby County v. Holder.
In Georgia, the gap between Black voter turnout and white turnout in the 2022 election was the highest it had been since 2014. And in Alabama, the gap between turnout has *tripled* since SCOTUS removed the protections of the Voting Rights Act in 2013.
Together with the John Lewis Voting Rights Advancement Act, these are the bills that we need to see signed into law now.
Our democracy can’t wait.

After having her for a few days, I’m completely enamored with my new doggie - her name is Treasure and she responds to it well, but I might shorten it to Tess - but, it hasn’t been easy for either of us. She’s just bursting with love and desire for affection, but either she’s so overwhelmed in a new environment that she’s forgetting her training, or she was pretty untrained to begin with. It’s like she just doesn’t really get the “rules” of being a pet dog and interacting with humans. And I think she got used to being a mostly-outdoor dog.
She gets really mouthy when she’s feeling playful and has torn through a lot of her toys as well as my weighted blanket - what a mess, beads everywhere! She pulls hard on the leash, I’m gonna buy her a harness instead of a collar (the rescue told me to get her a martingale collar but she’s choking herself on it) to see if that helps. And, she’s had several accidents in the house. So I’m contacting local trainers to get her in for obedience training, there’s actually a dog trainer really close to where I live which would be really convenient, and I’ll take her for lessons ASAP.
For now, she actually does do some things really well, and has responded to assertive “no!” and being ignored. She’s even good off-leash, doesn’t stray too far and comes when called. She gets along well with the dog I’ve been dogsitting (my parents are watching her), and is usually really good in her crate. And she’s curious about the chickens but doesn’t seem inclined to chase anything - she won’t even chase a tennis ball because it means leaving my side!
Thinking about it with a clear head it’s really pretty obvious why she’d act this way. I contacted her first foster to tell her I’ve adopted her, and the foster was ecstatic! Apparently, Tess was found scrounging for food in a dumpster in Alabama, with no fur from nasty skin issues. She’s 7 and only just got spayed this January, and she’s got swollen nipples so I’m sure she’s had puppies before, if she was a stray probably more than once. Her ears are all torn up, and she had heartworm when they found her. Her old foster had her for 8 months, nursing her back to health, and said it took 4 months for Tess to become comfortable with her. But she definitely touched the foster’s heart, even after 10 years of fostering she said Tess was something special. The whole community got together to help her, and Tess came with a huge bag of toys, treats, and sweaters/coats that had been donated just for her.
Then in early May she was shuttled off to a foster in Vermont, a very nice old man took her in but it seems he kind of just let her run loose with his other fosters and be a farm dog. He didn’t correct her when she jumped on him, he seemed like he adored her but might have been too permissive since he was busy with lots of other stuff. I can’t criticize him though, I’m a pushover and I’m sure that’s not helping. I’ve always been bad at boundaries, with animals and people. Treasure and I have a lot in common I think, we both just want to be loved but get confused about the Rules of Society™️. So I’ll stick by her, believe in her, and help her out as best as I can, treat her the way I wish I would be treated lol.
My dad gave me a good pep talk yesterday, telling me that I need to be more assertive and not to let her be rough with me. My dad’s been a big help - I think it’s actually that he wants a dog himself, but probably won’t get one himself since my little nephew is allergic and visits often. But he says once she has better leash manners he’ll walk her for me if necessary, and my mom will help too. We’ll set up an invisible fence for her eventually so she can run around outside more safely, but I think for now as long as I’m watching her she’s okay to run off leash to get out some of her energy and jitters. Right now, she’s sleeping soundly next to me on the bed, listening to the rain falling. We’ll work this out together. She’s really a good dog, no aggression, fear, or anything like that. She just has Big (Happy) Feelings and doesn’t know how to let them out in a healthy and safe way. And she’s been through so much, it’s a testament to her character (and the hard work of her fosters) that she’s so willing to love people.
But if anyone here has experience with dogs or dog training, or helpful tips or anything, I’d love to hear it! I’m a beginner with dogs too, I know how this stuff works in theory but in practice it sometimes feels overwhelming for me.

Chabeli Carranzana at The 19th:
For close to a decade, periods — yes, menstrual periods — had been one of those rare issues that could win legislative support in blue states and red ones.  Starting in about 2016, legislators from California to Alabama had been passing bills mandating that tampons and pads be readily available in public spaces — especially schools — after researchers found that students who don’t have access to these products miss days as a result. These students are facing what advocates call “period poverty,” meaning that they or their families can’t afford to buy menstrual supplies, which can cost upwards of $20 per cycle. It’s also an issue that particularly affects Black and Latinx people. 
For years, school nurses had been one of the only resources for students in need, many of them paying out-of-pocket for the products themselves. Legislators then successfully argued that schools should be providing those items. For a time, it was a winning strategy — an easy, bipartisan piece of legislation. Then something shifted. As anti-transgender rhetoric has picked up momentum in state chambers, period poverty bills have been caught in the crosshairs. Numerous states have passed legislation that bans trans and nonbinary students from using restrooms or playing on sports teams that align with their gender identity. The Republicans who support the anti-trans legislation say it’s needed to protect women and girls from “predators” who may pose as transgender women in restrooms.
Suddenly a topic just about everyone could agree on became a “liberal” policy, a threat to girls, a method of encouraging kids to be trans or nonbinary, or a way that Republican lawmakers could get “tricked” into supporting legislation that might mean a trans student could get a period product inside a boys’ bathroom.  Bathrooms somehow became a space that needed to be policed, said Rashanna Lee, the state policy analyst at the Equality Federation, an advocacy organization that works at the state level to protect LGBTQ+ rights. 
[...] The new scrutiny over which kids can use which bathrooms meant that legislators started reworking their bills to make them less gender-inclusive. Originally, much of the proposed legislation simply required the products to be available in  students’ bathrooms, an acknowledgment that some trans and nonbinary students have periods and need the products, too. But legislators, like those in Alabama in 2022, rewrote the bills to specify that “female students” be given products “through a female school counselor, female nurse, or female teacher.” Republican lawmakers in Minnesota tried and failed to change the language in the bill to only say “female restrooms.” Other states, like Idaho, were more explicit. When the Idaho state House took up the issue in March 2023, Rep. Rod Furniss, the Republican sponsor of the bill, specified that the products were to be only in “female or unisex” bathrooms and not “male” ones.  “We put in the language ‘not in boys’ restrooms’ because in Idaho, we believe there’s a difference between boys and girls,” he said in the House chambers during debate on the bill. “We believe that strongly.”  Furniss told the chamber that boys and girls have “two p’s — peeing and pooping” but he jokingly said he was “surprised” to learn in 2023 that girls also had a third p — periods.  “With the third p, the girls don’t have a muscle down there. It’s an emergency every time that happens,” Furniss said, adding that he “didn’t know much about this bill” that he’d sponsored, though he is the father of four girls.  However, “one thing I know,” he said, “is that boys and girls are different — one has two p’s, one has three p’s. In Idaho we believe they are different. We don’t let boys go in girls’ bathrooms, we don’t let girls go in boys’ bathrooms — we know they’re different. That’s an Idaho standard.”
[...] Still, the recent pushback created by growing anti-trans sentiment has made the conversation more complicated. That, too, is an issue of education, Strausfeld said. Period product access is an economic issue, and many legislators don’t understand the realities of trans and nonbinary people, who already experience higher rates of unemployment and poverty. Trans women, in particular, face one of the widest gender pay gaps of any group.
While some public women’s restrooms offer the products — oftentimes for a fee — men’s restrooms rarely do. It’s the same dynamic in homeless shelters: the products are typically available at women’s shelters, but not men’s. Trans and nonbinary people may also need menstrual products for other reasons, including following medical procedures such as a vaginoplasty. Public assistance programs that help people afford food and other necessities, like SNAP and WIC, the program for low-income women and children, do not allow participants to use the funds to purchase menstrual products.  As a result, Black and Brown trans and nonbinary students, who are at the intersection of racial and gender disparities, face period poverty most acutely, said Lee of the Equality Federation.
Up until the last couple of years ago, menstrual equity policies such as tampons and pads in school bathrooms were a bipartisan issue. Now, as a result of the anti-trans (and anti-LGBTQ+) hysteria-fueled campaign by Republicans, period products got turned into a partisan issue (see the “Tampon Tim” insult lobbed at Tim Walz).

Troubleshooting Chart of Housing Prices
I watched a [Wired] video article that tries it's very best, but ends up sounding like an AI generated rehashing of talking points the author doesn't really care about.
So, How did I come to my conclusion in the [Homeless for Profit] article?
If we're looking at a problem like "Cost of Housing" we need to first look at what the actual problem is;
People cannot afford permanent stable housing. Permanent *here* I'm defining as "Indefinite". Where most other places define "Permanent" as roughly a year or two.
What this means is I exclude "Rentals" on purpose, because *by that definition* renting is *NOT* a permanent solution.
#edit; I had to clarify the following section from previous version.#
This forms the basis of "Rent to Own, not Own to Rent".
Why? Because a landlord typically won't allow indefinite stay AND program that help pay rent are temporary, and once the funding runs out; the landlord has to decide if they'll rely on the renter's ability to continue paying or not.
Not only that; Renter's Rights and Squatter's rights afford a renter the ability to own the property after a certain timeframe of continuous rent and home improvements ALONGSIDE eviction protections which landlords do their best to ensure that a renter has no right to invoke by purposefully limiting their stay.
Because excessive rental properties, and properties that continually rotate out occupants in order to pay for a landlord's bills *and* not be used for permanent housing increasing cost of homes, loans, AND rent.
It's effectively a legalized Ponzi Scheme. Where somebody with adequate credit can take a loan to buy a property to rent, using the other end of these programs intended to support the homeless, and then pay off their loan, and keep the equity that the renter paid for.
The idea is either they sell it again, not at the same price mind you; but at whatever the current market price is.
And if you've been watching housing prices; they're going up. Even when there's a literal crisis. (ESPECIALLY WHEN)
The Wired article, and many like it; talk about "Luxury Development" and "Condos for rent" which places the onus of blame square on Millenials for "Not wanting cheaper houses".
Keep in mind; there are no cheaper houses. The blanket price is relative. The same price in rural Alabama as New York City.
And the property in Rural Alabama may as well be considered luxury in comparison.
This is what people are complaining about.
And why the idea of "Rent to Own" is gaining traction. The idea being; if you're going to rent a property; the equity being built up should be going to the person footing the bill.
The argument is always "Well the Owner is taking a Risk by taking the loan". The Risk is the lose of the property they purchased with that loan. Nothing else.
If they stopped paying, they'd loose the house, and get to keep all the rent.
So who is taking the risk?
You could say a home developer... Who spent money to build a property, and so they're taking a Risk by renting it...
But keep in mind; they're renting competitively. They're getting the same payment without needing to worry about a loan.
The risk they took was building the property; and all they need to do is sell it, and invest it into some blue chip stock with dividends.
You'd get much better returns that way. With the same "Risk". Seriously.
And that's where we're at. Right there, the cause of Supply dwindling, and Demand increasing, because *some people* don't want to really work a technical trade.

Why People Oppose CBDCs and the Laws Enacted to Fight Them
Tumblr media
Central Bank Digital Currencies (CBDCs) have become a hot topic in the world of finance. These digital currencies, issued by central banks, promise to revolutionize the way we transact. However, they also face significant opposition. This article explores the reasons behind the opposition to CBDCs and the legislative actions taken against them.
What are CBDCs?
CBDCs are digital versions of a country’s fiat currency, issued and regulated by the central bank. Unlike decentralized cryptocurrencies such as Bitcoin, CBDCs are controlled by the government. Countries like China and the Bahamas have already launched their versions of CBDCs, while many others, including the United States, are exploring their potential.
Reasons for Opposition
Privacy Concerns
One of the primary concerns about CBDCs is the potential for government surveillance. Unlike cash transactions, which are anonymous, digital transactions can be tracked. This could allow governments to monitor individuals’ spending habits and financial activities closely. For instance, a government could potentially know what you buy, when you buy it, and where you buy it. This level of surveillance is unsettling for many who value their financial privacy.
Control and Censorship
CBDCs could also give governments unprecedented control over personal finances. They could, for example, freeze accounts or limit what individuals can spend their money on. This level of control raises concerns about potential misuse of power. Imagine a scenario where political dissenters find their access to funds restricted because of their opposition to the government.
Economic Freedom
Opponents of CBDCs argue that they could erode financial autonomy. Decentralized cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin offer an alternative to the traditional financial system, promoting financial freedom and independence. In contrast, CBDCs are seen as a tool for reinforcing governmental control over the economy.
Security Risks
Digital currencies are susceptible to cyber-attacks and fraud. The infrastructure supporting CBDCs would need to be highly secure to prevent hacking and protect users’ funds. Any vulnerabilities in the system could have severe consequences, including financial losses and disruptions in the economy.
Laws and Regulations Against CBDCs
Opposition to CBDCs has led to the introduction of various laws aimed at restricting or prohibiting their use. Several states in the US have taken significant steps in this direction.
State-Level Legislation
South Dakota: Recently passed a law prohibiting the state from accepting CBDCs as payment and blocking participation in CBDC trials.
Indiana, Florida, and Alabama: Between April and June 2023, these states passed laws excluding CBDCs from the definition of money under the Uniform Commercial Code, potentially discouraging business usage.
Oklahoma: Passed a law preventing the state from participating in CBDC trials or using CBDCs.
Federal-Level Legislation
CBDC Anti-Surveillance State Act: In September 2023, the House Financial Services Committee voted in favor of this act, which would prohibit the Federal Reserve from issuing a CBDC directly to individuals or using it for monetary policy. This bill still needs to pass the full House and Senate.
Political Stances: Former President Donald Trump has vowed to block a CBDC if he becomes President again.
Impact of Opposition
The opposition to CBDCs has significant implications for their adoption and implementation. State-level laws and proposed federal bills create substantial hurdles, signaling strong resistance to their rollout. Concerns about financial privacy and government overreach play a crucial role in shaping public opinion and legislative action. If the opposition successfully limits or prevents the rollout of CBDCs, it could influence global approaches to digital currencies.
Conclusion
The debate over CBDCs is far from over. While they promise to modernize the financial system, the concerns about privacy, control, economic freedom, and security cannot be ignored. The laws and regulations against CBDCs reflect a broader political and societal debate about the future of money and financial autonomy. As this debate continues, it is essential to stay informed and engaged with developments in digital currencies.

Getting Your Alabama Home Ready for Sale
Declutter The first step in preparing your house for a quick sale is to declutter and depersonalize the space. Remove any unnecessary items and personal belongings, such as family photos and keepsakes.
Clean Thoroughly If you plan to sell your house to a realtor then you might need a clean and tidy home. Before listing your property, give it a deep clean, paying attention to every nook and cranny. Consider hiring professional cleaners to ensure your home is in pristine condition.
Make Minor Repairs While cash home buyers accept properties as-is, realtors ask you to repair minor things that can enhance the overall appeal of your home.
The Perks of Cash Home Buyers
Speedy Transactions One of the most significant advantages of cash house buyers is the speed of the transaction. Traditional home sales can be time-consuming, involving complex paperwork and negotiations that may take months.
With cash home buyers, you can skip the lengthy process and receive an offer within days. This is especially beneficial if you're looking to sell your house fast in alabama due to financial reasons or an urgent move.
As-Is Condition Preparing your home for a traditional sale often involves expensive repairs and renovations to attract potential buyers.
However, cash home buyers purchase properties as-is, meaning you won't have to spend money on costly improvements.
No Real Estate Agent Fees By opting for cash home buyers, you can avoid the hefty fees that come with hiring a real estate agent.
Traditional sales typically involve paying agent commissions, which can eat into your profits. With cash home buyers, the offer you receive is the amount you'll get, providing you with more financial flexibility.
Conclusion Selling your Alabama home doesn't have to be a stressful and time-consuming process.
By considering house buyers in alabama, you can enjoy the benefits of a quick and hassle-free transaction.

I hope this post gets noticed and reblogged. The Netherlands has been trying to reduce the flights from Schiphol Airport but first America (particularly American Airlines) has bullied us into 're-thinking' it and now people are starting the conversation again the Emirates (the airline) are threatening us with lawsuits and countermeasures like reducing flights from the KLM. Not only is this extremely petty and are they essentially bullying a small country into submission, it's also not fair. As a country, the United Arab Emirates are twice our size and the US is like 80 times our size. In the current housing crisis, something that I don't know is even happening in the UAE, a country like America can easily build entire cities with the lands they have, and airports in the middle of nowhere. In the Netherlands, our country is getting more cramped and more cramped to the point we are pushing back against immigration as we are simply FULL. If the Schiphol airport becomes less crowded, it would be both good for the enviroment and it would make it a bit more attractive for people to start living in the area again as currently it's practically inhabitable with the number of flights Schiphol has. I'm sorry but housing and the enviroment is literally a thousand times more important then corporate greed and foreign travellers' needs. A country like the US can easily keep going at the rate they're at, we simply CAN'T. We're too small of a country to be able to host this level of flights! If all of you really care about the enviroment as so many of you say you do, stand in solidarity with the Dutch and boycott American Airlines and the airline of the UAE. Show them that its wrong to bully a tiny country that's been exploited by their previous corrupt government that sold out its own people for over a decade to foreign bussinesses and gave us the biggest gap between the rich and poor in Europe. Mark Rutte's strategy was as the Dutch government is divided in over a dozen parties, to keep enough people rich to back up his party who'd always be the winning one because the poor votes would be divided amongst too many parties to actually mean a thing. Until his regime finally crashed because they were attempting to force town councils to accept refugees when there is zero space for them, smaller countries should have fewer refugees but people like the EU don't give a fuck if a small country is reaching their maximum capacity of civilians. All of you blocking celebrities because of the met Gala's hunger games vibes? If you have ever been interested into going to the Netherlands for a trip, don't go to Amsterdam. Go to Rotterdam. The most important harbor city of Europe with its own airport and stop to many international trains too. You'd think its rich, but its the poorest city of the country. Compare the luxurious city center with areas like Zuidwijk. It's like going from Manhatten to the Bronx. Below Rotterdam you will slowly encroach the southern countryside where I grew up. I know there's a busline from Rotterdam that almost reaches the southern border. Give it a shot. Go to villages like Dinteloord which is one of our villages with a high incest rate (its like our tiny Alabama). Go to the city Bergen Op Zoom which has became somewhat of a ghost town because of the rich buying up the city center with its beautiful historic architecture whilst the poor areas are infested with a drug similar to Angel Dust. We've had enough. Please, please listen to us and take a stand. We could use the support. Until recently, we always were apart of the top 10 in international charity givers and we helped out in so many places like Dutch scientists because of our great deltaworks and experience with floods have been there to support various natural disasters like Hurricane Katrina. We've always been there for others before we took care of ourselves, our people have been living with less and less so we could help all of you. Please help us too because the rich don't care about us. Boycotting two airlines shouldn't be too much to ask.
