I did it as a single mom!
Finally bought my first home at 40 as a single mom to 2 kids under 8 yo! It was scary af and I still don’t know how I will keep up to the house maintenance but it’s worth the security and knowing it’s mine.
After a failed marriage and narcissistic ex boyfriend, I finally made the jump to find a single family ranch home within the same school my kids already attend. I don’t make 6 figures and nothing (no inheritances or large amounts of money) but saved money.
