Ramil and I initially planned on getting our own house before getting married. Well, some circumstances prevented us from doing just that. Doing some computations, we figured it would take a long time before we get married if we do that. So we opted to just save for it while married. Some of our relatives have just recently bought their own house. They know someone who knows a lot about real estate and he helped them find a good property. Ramil and I have been talking about it and we are seriously thinking of following suit. We just need to save a bit more. I just hope it’s soon, I can’t wait for a house of our own. We don’t mind if we have to buy a house and then we would have to pay for Mortgage for several more years. My own parents paid mortgage on their house for ten years. In fact, they were able to pay up their mortgage just a few years ago. Now, they’re enjoying their house knowing that it’s theirs a hundred percent. Ramil and I can’t wait to have the same thing. We know we’re going to work hard for it and it’s going to take a lot of empty pockets for us. Still, we consider it an investment that’s a must for every couple.
