[quote=Anonymous]You make almost exactly what DH and I make. We bought a house in that brief time between bubble and bust--the tail end of 2006. We are in DC in a neighborhood that is still "transitioning," I guess, but is actually great. (Atlas District) We probably wouldn't be able to buy here now. But there are other neighborhoods where we would be able to buy something--not polished, but fine--that are probably about where our neighborhood was 7 years ago. It isn't easy, that's for sure, when your income is what ours is. But it's possible. Find a place that feels like it could be home, give it a lot of thought, consider your priorities. In the meantime, save, save,save for your down payment.[/quote]
