    THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR ALL THE LOVE. I am very excited and want to be posting a LOT of housing content. I will be making a view informative videos + vlogging the process. Renovation won't start until the new year but ask questions in the comments for my videos coming up.

      I like your videos and I do think you are a great person. I am so inspired not only by you but I like vlogs in general. Because it gives me the experience of what life is like in IDK this setting like college for example.
      I think I should start working on making RUclips videos and I am actually coming up with ideas for that
      I will share you and everyone in this thread what my RUclips channel will be.

    Can you explain mortgages? I have a basic understanding watching my mother buy a house, but I’d like to hear more about it.

    • @pj6857
      @pj6857 3 года назад +5

      Basic understanding is your in debt for a very long time, although it’s not as daunting as it seems, once you have signed up and making payments it gets easier. My opinion do some short term rentals in the areas you like first, as when you buy something it’s a lot harder to sell than to rent, selling can be very costly.

    Natalie's vlogs are soo comforting. It's soo nice seeing a normal human in front of the camera working and spending time as a human and not doing anything crazy every video just for views and clickbait. Also, still so proud for the house you bought!!!

    I’m so happy for you getting your first house! I just bought my first house too (im 31-I was nowhere near as responsible as you are when I was 24) it never goes the way you expect it to but it is so worth it. I’m so happy in my new place. A little scary because I got laid off immediately after closing (I was a librarian) but I know I’ve been through a lot and I can make it happen. Tbh your videos have helped me a lot with keeping on track because I know I have a tendency to buy stuff I don’t need when I am stressed so thank you ☺️

    Can you go through the process of how you’re going to manage this property/find renters/doing repairs etc? Also I’m familiar with Charlotte so the general area of where you bought the house (plaza midwood/west/etc) and how you decided that would be great along with what you looked for generally in the house itself

    • @NatalieBarbu

  • @irinas4100
    @irinas4100 3 года назад +25

    I find your vlogs so much more relaxed and interesting since you moved from NYC. Also, could you maybe film a video or talk about a topic that bothers me a bit since I also own my business and I quit corporate position. People think I work less and that it's easier than being employed somewhere. Did you encounter anything similar? Also, employers see it in a negative way, at least in my country. If you have your own agency in early age, they question it in a pretty rude way.

    • @NatalieBarbu
      @NatalieBarbu  3 года назад +3

      Aw thank you! And oh yes, people definitely think you don't work if you do something different. I have learned to not focus too much on what they think because focusing on them will never get me anywhere.

    Thank you for sharing your knowledge and experiences with us. I’m 31 years old and have learned so much from you.
    If you buy a house in NC and you’re from out of state is the down payment more? I have been looking but I definitely don’t have enough savings yet. Also I don’t think I would want it for myself but to rent. I have also heard that buying a single family home and then buying a multi family home is more expensive bc the interest rates go up since the state sees it as a business opportunity. Is it the same in NC?
