[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Was so close to buying in 2020 and 2021 and now those properties I could afford at 1.2 and 3% are at 1.7 and 6.8% and I am locked out of the UMC for the rest of my life. No equity here.[/quote] Moral of the story: buy at $900K when interest rates are 3%, even if you’re dreaming to get into the $1.2m house. But what you can afford as soon as possible. The equity gains will compound any increases in your salary. Trying to save income alone isn’t enough because prices generally are also going up and it’s difficult to stay ahead of the price increases.[/quote] but will there be equity gains now that are as significant as the last few years? If I buy now - I feel like I'm buying at the top of the market - which may not go down but I doubt will go up as significantly as it has. its easy to look back and say yeah - should've bought that 900k home a couple years ago - but what do we do right now.[/quote]
