So I was in attendance at our last condo association meeting the other day because they were going to announce the new “Special Assessment” fee. Granted this assessment fee will put new roofs on a few buildings and treat all of the buildings for termite damage as well as a few other things but damn man. We just finished paying off the last assessment for the canal cleanup that the city of Boynton Beach made us pay. This one is much bigger though and a much bigger hit to the wallet. Imagine your rent going up $450 a month for the next year. I’ll bet you’d leave wouldn’t you? I wish a hurricane would come and just totally wipe this damn condo off the face of the earth.

It’s happening everywhere, people’s property value around here has gone down so far that they can’t give the damn things away. I just got my Palm Beach County tax estimate for the year and it’s worth about 50k less than I paid for it. Granted my taxes are lower but that’s a small consolation to the fact that there is no way I can make a dime if I tried to sell it. No matter how I look at it, this condo is a money pit at the moment and my condo association is proposed I toss another 5k into the hole.

Ranting, sorry I’m a little bitter. Pardon my language but “Fuck this place”.
