Our one chance to move into a home of our own, which we hope to buy rather than rent, depended on saving enough money for a down payment, inspection closing costs, and other fees. Unfortunately, since the unforeseen death of my boyfriend's mother resulted in us having to dip into our savings to cover some funeral expenses, and our rent more than doubling, we have been unable to save anything since then.
Now we're $1,000 at least less than we'd hoped because of necessary repairs to our actual car hitting a deer over New Year's Eve. Really appreciate some help here.
