I’ve only been living in my current beach house for 2 years.
Before that, I was renting an apartment in the city.
After college, I moved into this small apartment that I was sharing with 4 roommates. Later, I managed to move to a better place where I only had one roommate. We got along fine, and I managed to save up the amount I wanted to put as a down payment for a house. My roommate also had similar plans, so we always challenged each other to be frugal and stay the course. Eventually, I found a lovely beach house for sale and bought it. About a year later, I had my first encounter with AC problems. It was summer, and I hadn’t done any AC maintenance work. Since the new AC unit, I thought it was good to go until next summer. But, one morning, I felt the house was warmer since the unit wasn’t blowing ample cool air into the beach house. I had to go online and search for an AC repair company in the area to assist me with this issue. I got 3 choices and opted for the one that confirmed an AC technician would come by my house in half an hour. The rest were saying someone would come by between 4 and 6 hours. The AC technician was punctual and began doing a thorough inspection of the unit. She discovered my air filter was filthy and needed a replacement. The AC technician also had to clean the evaporator coils, and other parts of the AC were covered in dirt. She left after she was done and handed me a bill which was surprisingly lower than I had expected.
