[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]In the DC area a HHI should be the goal 200k. That's 100k for 2 people or 200k for one if you prefer that model. For most college gradudates that is very easy to hit by 30-35ish So affordable housing to me is around there That puts the mortage payment at around 4000 a month which is selling price of around 900k If you aren't at 200k HHI or don't see how you could get there. I would consider moving plenty of other areas of the country where you can be very comfortable on say 100k HHI. The DC area isn't one of them. [/quote] I am very comfortable on $130k. You people are insane[/quote] assuming you are single so yeah 130k is perfectly fine for a single person benchmark would be around 100k less if you have roommates which would be highly recommended[/quote] Oh good grief. We are a family of 4 that gets by quite comfortably on just a bit more than that. Get your head out of your ass.[/quote]
