PM: 90' on TrainerRoad (Antelope -4). HR 139.

We did a pre-appoval for a housing loan today. Well, Megan did. My debt is insane and she looks much better on paper without me.

A bit of snow coming in throughout tomorrow, so likely no running, but I will ride on the trainer. I hoped to run most days this week, but I don't think that will happen.

Started physical therapy for my hip again.

That's exciting about a house Jason. Good luck!

Congrats on the house front. Did you find one you like?

Sorry about your hip. Hope you can get it better soon.

Thanks. We are in the process of getting a realtor. Our lease ends on the 15th of May, so timing is a bit tricky.

Hip is fine. It's an issue I have had since 2013. Got it fixed up in 2018 and it's just tightened up again. Nothing serious.

Interest rates are dropping, good time to be looking at loans and house purchases. Any luck with a realtor? Pick a good one with experience and not a discount, they earn their fees (which the seller pays anyways!) on knowing how to ensure the transaction is legal, compliant and complete. Ask about and understand "agency". My mom was a realtor for 30+ years and we are working with a good one in Arizona for my in-laws house purchase (he has helped a ton!).

Thanks, Jeff. We are going to make a move on one this week. It makes sense to go with one with experience. Interest rates might really be dropping now!
