Hi,
I'm new to this place, I have only recently found that I have autism in mid life, which explained a lot. Struggled much if my life with 'shyness' but in reality it is simply lack of confidence of knowing.
I've a new challenge now and it terrifies me. After a break up in now looking to buy my own home but have no idea how. My ex was also the one that guided that, they understood me and helped guide. Now Im not sure what to do. What is the process, what do I need, like do i build my credit rating if that's necessary etc.
I struggle with procrastination too and honestly it's starting to really get me down.
I totally get how overwhelming it can be. When I bought my place, I started by checking my credit score—super important for getting a mortgage. If it's not great, work on improving it. Also, saving up for a down payment was key for me.
Look into first-time homebuyer programs; they can be a lifesaver. And for procrastination, try breaking things into smaller tasks to make it less daunting. Just take it one step at a time—you’ll get there!
