My fiancée and I are getting married in January 2026. We’re determined to build our own life together, not move into either of our parents’ basements, but we also want to stay close to our family. Springville is where I grew up, where I went to high school, and Mapleton is home for her. The problem is, everything close by is financially out of reach. Buying a home together for us and our future family is a major goal we have. But is nearly impossible with how much houses are, especially when we need to pay for rent over $1000 a month while saving up for a down payment.
