Falling in love can be a beautiful thing, regardless of if it is with a person, a car, or even, your house. Often, we may find ourselves landing in the middle of a commitment that looks good from the outside, but after greater inspection turns out to be a bit more complicated to work with than we originally thought. What may seem to have been love at first sight could turn out to have some hidden flaws we didn’t think to anticipate.
