I'm actually buying it with the_axel. I provided the down payment, he provided the credit-rating-that-doesn't-get-laughed-at and the bank-employee-astrostonishingly-low-discounted-interest-rate-loan.

I've spent the last three months sharing an apartment small for two people with him and his roommate, and I haven't wanted to kill him more often than, hrm, once a week or so, so I think that bodes well.

The new place will eventually contain apartments once we're done with it, so that will help too.
