It's the season for the upcoming wedding marathons and I've noticed that most of my friends are buying a property so they can get married.  Property has been my passion and interest but apparently it means eligibility for marriage. Well it does signifies maturity and ability to take care of the other half... but what about the debts?  My concern is young peeps getting their dream home as their first property and most of the time, the top choice is a landed terrace. This results in one part of the relationship that works entirely for the monthly installment. What about the maintenance? Car? Utility? And living?  So my take is to encourage young couples to be practical about the choice of property that's within their financial means. Don't be pushing yourselves too much just to have extra rooms that you don't need. And there's totally nothing wrong about renting a room as a couple. Just be glad that you guys found each other early=)
