[quote=Anonymous]It’s a little tight for me but we’re aggressive savers. You have to do what you have to do in a HCOL area. We have friends who bought around this range / HHI and are fine. It’s aligned with any standard mortgage affordability advice too. A lot of the DCUM crowd either bought before the COVID house price spike or refinanced during it at 2.5% so you always get skewed responses here that are like “We spend 1% of our HHI on housing” and it’s like we get it Karen, you refinanced during COVID and live in a 1960s N Arlington rambler where the entire value is in the land. I’ve found the Reddit HENRY forum more helpful for questions like this - younger crowd that’s in similar circumstances, many also with young kids. [/quote]
