Blessing # 7: Own Home

Before we got married, we decided not to live with our parents. We want to be independent and start our new life as husband and wife. After our wedding, we have no choice but to stay at their rented house at Manila for 1 month while looking for a house near our office vicinity. Thank God, nakahanap rin kami agad. We rented this house since 2012 and guess what, our monthly rental is Php 10,000 for up and down with 2BR and Terrace. I know sabi nila okay yung location since Makati area lang and near our parents place pa plus the fact na mura na daw yung 10K lalo na nasa Makati kami. But then we realized that we should invest on our own home soon lalona lumalaki na ang aming pamilya and dahil sabi nga nila pinapayaman lang namin yung lessor and hindi naman sa amin mapupunta yung bahay. Well, may point naman sila.

Actually, when I listed our goals in 2014 and 2015 kasama dun yung pagkuha namin ng sariling bahay. But we need to delay it since super daming problema and may ibang priorities na dumating sa amin last year and this year. But you know what, God is so good talaga and has a bigger plan for us, sometimes the process is painful and hard but we strongly believe that everything happens for a reason.

After discussing, planning and budgeting with my husband, we decided to get our OWN HOME. Finally, this is the right time we're waiting for. Matagal pa namin sya makukuha but at least we are now starting our dream and own home db, so for now we need to save a lot! Meaning less gala, less gastos, kailangan magipon for our monthly DP.
