“Buying a house?! That’s is so unpunk.”
Read over a long lunch break, Fort Mortgage is a split work by zinesters Kisha and Taco David about their adventure buying a house in Chicago. It’s equal parts critical information and tips to make the ordeal easier. Artwork is kept to a minimum and the writing is concise and informative.
If you’re clueless when it comes to the process it takes to own your own home, read this twice and you’ll know more than you would by staying up all night, multiple times, surfing the Web or by meeting with a real estate agent … who’s probaby not punk.
For those in the know, there’s little new information, but the zine serves as a confidence booster when you hear that yes, it is possible for a punk to buy a house.
All I need to do now is decide where I want to live for the next 30 years.
For more information, email Taco Dave at tacolove at gmail dot com. To buy, visit Microcosm.
