[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Sorry, OP - this board is harsh when it comes to people with a $130-170K income (despite the rest of DCUM insisting that anyone making under $200K is poor in this area). We're in a similar situation but with 2 kids in elementary, a slightly lower income, and a lower mortgage because we bought in 2010. But it's still tight and we don't have enough in either retirement or college savings (although we will have a federal pension). We're looking at a less expensive house but the reality is that there is not much available at a lower price point that is in decent shape, with a decent commute, and in a decent school district. I don't have any answers, just sympathy.[/quote] Then something is off. We bough in 09, had incomes from $110-160K with a payment of $2K a month and we are comfortable. We a decent amount in the college fund, save for retirement and pay extra into the mortgage each month so I'm not sure how those of you are living but I'm missing something if its a struggle.[/quote] Amazing! Where did you find a home in the DMV for $400k? Congratulations![/quote]
