I officially signed off on and accepted the new job yesterday. I am so exited and thankful to move on to better days ahead. My start date is Aug. 4th and now I can just enjoy the rest of my vacation.
I spoke to my Realtor this morning about listing my condo for sale and rental. She threw in the sale bit. I would be happy if I could find a buyer but condo values have not rebounded that far yet. She did say that she didn't think I would have any problems renting my condo and covering my expenses and she thinks it could lease fast because people also like to settle before the school year starts in August. I told her I could be out by the end of the month which would be lovely since I have about 3 weeks before I start my new job when I get back from vacation.
My parents have a decent size basement but I will need a storage space for some of my things. It shouldn't be a large expense. I'm ready to move, tackle this debt and be totally free. Moving forward!

I'm so glad you're doing this. I still remember your "$225 000, that's the price for my freedom" comment. With all the changes you're doing now, with your new job and this move, you'll get there sooner rather than later:) I'm cheering for you. Love from Norway.
Way to go, Chitown! You're really putting your action plan in place. This is really good. Either way -- renting or selling, you'll free up some cash that you can direct towards the student loans. I hope the real estate market continues to improve in Chicago. Like you said -- you're moving forward. -law grad
Thanks is much for the support and encouragement. I am really excited about what's ahead and so thankful for everything. You guys rock!
I think this is such a great move. Living alone seems to not be your thing and there is no reason you should pay a premium to do so. I hope you can say Goodbye to your credit card balance in 2014.
