My Emotional Roller Coaster and WTFs of Buying a Home at the Jersey Shore in 2022

I’m happy to say I FINALLY bought a house down the Jersey shore. After several months of looking, getting outbid, trying to find the right home as my lease on the winter cottage in Manasquan is running out and interest rates are going up, I closed at the buzzer 😊
