About the Book

Diary of a First-Time Homebuyer

Buying your first home is supposed to be exciting… right?
Unless you’re slightly broke, highly anxious, and married to someone who thinks “a little fixer-upper” is a fun weekend project.

Diary of a 1st Time Homebuyer is a hilarious, heartfelt journey through love, real estate, and all the things HGTV forgot to mention. Told through laugh-out-loud diary entries, it follows a newly married couple as they dive headfirst into the chaotic, emotional, and occasionally ridiculous process of buying their first home in the suburbs.

From the “should we even buy?” conversations to the open houses that smelled suspiciously like cookies and regret, this book captures the real rollercoaster of homebuying—the highs, the lows, and the “did we just buy a house with carpet in the bathroom?” moments.

Along the way, readers meet a lovable cast of characters including a saintly real estate broker, a judgmental dog, and one mouse who really overstayed his welcome. Many diary entries end with a “Pro Tip”—real advice disguised as humor—so you’ll find yourself laughing, learning, and realizing that everyone feels lost in the process (even the pros).

But Diary of a 1st Time Homebuyer isn’t just for people buying a home. It’s for anyone who’s ever taken a big leap, survived a stressful milestone, or tried to hold it together when everything went sideways. It’s for couples who’ve argued over paint colors, people who’ve yelled at Zillow listings, and anyone who believes that laughter might just be the best coping mechanism for adulthood.

By the final chapter, readers will walk away with more than a few laughs—they’ll have perspective, encouragement, and the comforting reminder that no one gets it perfect the first time.

Equal parts comedy, chaos, and heart, Diary of a 1st Time Homebuyer proves that sometimes the best way to survive life’s biggest adventures… is to laugh your way through them.
