Currently I rent, but my fiancee & I are about to move to a house in Nutley. I’ve been here since 2002 (originally from MA).
I’m an independent IT consultant. I make decent money, but there’s always room for improvement!
It must be very decent money indeed, if you can hope to cope with property taxes in Nutley. Owwwwww!
And without a landlord, you have to do your own plumbing repairs.
Get married, be fruitful, and best of luck to you. Sounds like you’re moving in the right direction, especially if you started out in MA :)
Me, I’d hop on 80 and not stop ‘til I reached Hazleton PA!
