I think I mentioned we’re starting to look for another house–one where we could maybe live without stairs if we got too decrepit, and one where we could definitely live without an HOA. We haven’t looked at a lot in person but it all made me go back to a home inspector’s account on TikTok and watch pretty much all of his videos.
Is this encouraging? No, not really. But is it cathartic in a sort of terrible way? Yeah.

New builds aren’t available in our price range and/or without an HOA in the areas we’re looking, so that’s off the table…. but I’m not that upset:
