You are being alarmist.
They leak water.
Which hides behind the walls and generates black mold which renders the house uninhabitable.

Actually, I'm being facetious.

Free-range, gluten-free facetiousness? I hope so.

Pottery Barn and West Elm have free design services, you work with them online, there's no obligation to buy anything, it's really helpful. Friends have mine have used them and been very happy.

It sounds to me like you are feeling like you got in over your head a bit, not financially but emotionally. I'm wondering if it's even related to the actual house at all...

Home ownership is overwhelming? I'll trade you then...I rent and it's absolutely horrible based on my 20 or so years of doing in it for a whole laundry list of reasons.

At least you own something and you have the freedom to do what you want in your home. You also reap the rewards financially with a future sale of it vs paying some elses mortgage.
