[quote=Anonymous]OP here.

I think our problem is that we are starting with nothing - no equity.  Was a mistake to rent for 10 years.  But then again, we both graduated penniless so buying wasn't in the cards when the market was good.   We each scrimped and saved (prior to mtg and since) and are trying to get in now.

Yes, we saw a financial planner after DS1 was born to make sure we were putting enough into college (would like to pay for as much of it as we can) and retirement.

Goal: A nice 3 bedroom house in a school district of 8s and a 30 min commute to downtown.  My job is demanding (50 - 55 hours a week)  and I don't want to give up any more of my time - esp not to a commute.  I'd move 1000 miles away but he wants his job.  I want a house - a place to live our lives - that doesn't feel like a dungeon.

To the previous poster, I think your note about being mostly mad that he doesn't care is right.  How could he not want more for our family?  He grew up with all of the above but doesn't feel the same desire to provide it for our kids the way I do.[/quote]
