As stated in title. What is your HHI and what did you pay for your single family house? Also what year? Renter curious what people spend to buy a single family. (No condos or townhomes).

HHI 650k, bought our house in 2019 for 1.3
Million, it’s worth around 1.95 now. Interest rate 2.65%. We are in McLean, to provide context.

Paid $950K in 2024 with 20% down so mortgage is $750K or so. HHI $700-800K. $6K PITI due to 7% interest rate despite mortgage principal being under our annual HHI : )

This isn’t a good enough metric. You need to know their income, net worth and their down payment when they bought.

We paid $550k ten years ago when our hhi was $140k. It’s now close to $1m, but instead of moving we pay for private school. So far, it’s the best of both worlds.

970K with 350 down, 6.5%
HHI is a little more than 450K
NW is 1.8 (upward trajectory with growth all in the past 12 years, last 5 pretty rapidly)

We paid 750k for our house in Feb of 2025. HHI is about 275k.

This was a downsize for us, we sold a house for 1.25M and put a significant amount of the appreciation that was in that house into the new house. (We bought that house, the one we just sold, for 705k in 2012.)

Paid $170,000 in 2003. Our HHI was $80,000 at the time. House now worth about $400,000. Our HHI was $240,000 for a few years, but now back closer to $100,000 with some job shifts. Net worth about 1.5 million.

See, we aren’t all one percenters (or even five percenters)!
