Would you buy back your old house from childhood?

I'm sure people have done it...I miss my old house too :( I lived in it for 12 years, I was happy there, honestly, I took the time I had there for granted. I wish I hadn't, because you can't go back. What's done is done.

If I could buy it back...maybe. Maybe I would. The neighborhood I used to live in has gone to hell, though.

Wow, I'm tearing up thinking about it now lol. If I couldn't buy it, I definitely hope that whoever is living in it would let me at least look at it. Maybe I need that? Kind of like, a final goodbye or something...what I would give for that....

Yes , Yes and YES I was born in San Francisco in 1958 on a street in an area called Lower Pacific Heights. As a child even though I could appreciate the architecture of our flat with two other flats above us. My parents were hard working people Dadd was a Crew chief at American Airlines and Mama was a housekeeper working hard for a Dr and his family. I vividly remember thinking my Mama should be living in on of these mansions not working for these rich people I loved her that much. Back to my childhood home at my age now and this day and age that building would be worth god knows how manpy millions all I know is I'm going to pray what seems impossible I'm aware of this but I refuse to not dream that by some miracle I would be able to purchase that building especially since the " what do they call themselves the effing Millennials (have no idea if it's spellled correctly) I vividly remember my parents were retiring looking forward to enjoying one another they were married over 49 years so Imagine having to move because the new owner moved everyone out. I was born and raised there thing is now these days to have a place ike that would pull in a crap load of money but then again I wonder if it would have been as wonderful as I imagine considering some of the shady pieces of crap in my family I dunno maybe it was not in God's plan all I know Is I obsess daily and nightly about mistakes I've made since turning 58 it seems all I can concentrate on is my mistakes any suggestions on how to stop driving myself crazy something spiritual would be nice if you believe in spirit of any kind except the Devil lol. How ever I want that bilding so badly I can taste it and will continue to pray for a miracle because that is what I need. I don't even feel confortable in San Francisco anymore it's just so RICH LOOKING I feel like I don't belong but I belong because I was born there our flat had beautiful architecture was stunning but I didn't appreciate it as a little kid I think I thought we owned it I was just a kid. but I think about it every day all day I refuse to stop believing that a super miracle would happen don't know how but miracles work that way they stun you because they are what they are called MIRACLES. tHAT WAS MY HOME and I wonder if God thought it was not a good Idea to own it there are family members who are the Devils Donuts if ya know what I'm say who is to say the ones who went to jail would have not effed it up mabe it was not meant to be. But I'm an adult and can happily say no to the idiots alot of them have croaked anyway I still wish they had tried to buy it does not mean we would have gotten it but I think about it every single day. I refuse to give up on this dream. I no longer do things I use to do am kind to every soul I meet and pray my karma points are high lol. Heck yes I would buy it and I will refuse to give up anything that seems inpossible is possible if not that one I will get something better If by chance you hear the name Tina Williamd in comedy it's me please wish me luck thank you so much.

My mom still lives in it in my childhood house but I would not want to live in it. Sorry. My sister can have it.

It's not like I have lots of bad memories, I just don't like the house. It's still in a fairly decent neighborhood.

If I did own it, I would have to make some major changes. I just don't like the way it is.

It's a two-story on a large lot. There's a lot of potential there.

No,I would'nt.I feel you are trying to stay in your childhood and that you won't be able to grow into the individual you are or should be..Trying to reclaim your childhood sounds a bit like something is missing..but sometimes it can mean that you had such great memories there that you want your children to experiance the same..Me I had no good memories,so I would'nt do it>>>

Wow...good question. For the past three weeks, I have been dreaming about that house. I loved that house and initially, wanted to buy it from my family but they refused. Then I wanted to buy it back from investor who purchased it a few years ago, after the renovations were complete. It was not meant for me to do so. His asking price was outrageous ...lol.....and he said the neighborhood was not a good one any longer. He was looking out for me.

I'm living in the same house since childhood

I own the house my mother lives in. It is the house I grew up in and she did as well. I think it's a very old fashioned idea to keep property in the family.

In practical terms, though, you will probably need to live close to where you and your husband's work is.

I don't know if there's a psycho reason, unless your life was psycho or turned upside-down when you lived there. If you want to buy it for all the happy memories, then do it! I'm sure you'll love it

Its a fascinating thought, I could definetly imagine myself buying back my own childhood house when the time comes for me to settle down.

No, it's a very old farmhouse in a terrible location with no job opportunities, or even social opportunities. I do have good memories from living there, but they come with a lot of very bad memories.
