[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here and I can’t believe th lack of reading comprehension here. Nowhere did I say I want to saddle myself with a 1.7M house or even 1.3M. That’s exactly the point! I can’t do that and won’t do that, [b]but I could have had that’s EXACT SAME HOUSE and all the advantages that come with it, had I bought it at 1.1-1.2 2-3 years ago. [/b]That is the point. The exact same thing is suddenly no longer accessible to people who have saved and denied themselves literally their entire adult life to get it, only to see it slip away forever.[/quote]

OP, just wondering why you weren't able to buy back then?  It sounds like this was a really important goal for you. What happened?  Did you make offers but lost out to others?  Were you waiting for a house in a particular neighborhood/school district and none came open? [/quote]

does it really matter?  OP is where she is now.[/quote]

To find another reason the bash someone online, since that gives people so much pleasure, of course![/quote]

This is what’s really happened here. Those of you whining that you can’t have empathy because most people can’t have that live nowhere near the DMV and have no idea what’s happened in the past three years in real estate here. Yes, some places have gone up that much. And the interest rate doubled.

And where I lived before, only the UMC lived in homes over $400,000 so it’s rich to see so many of you in your $300,000 and $700,000 homes feel insulted and insult her as privileged. What a bunch of self-centered, unaware trolls.[/quote]

+1 this thread is a bunch of really privileged people getting upset and offended because someone else might be marginally more privileged than they are[/quote]

Along with a bunch of non-privileged people who can’t even contemplate being able to afford a million dollar home.[/quote]

No hon. A non privileged person is someone who can't stay housed in a stable way because they can't afford the rent, much less save up for a $300k home.  The fact so many of you have so little perspective that you feel the need to be this mean to someone complaining about the real estate market, says so much about you and it is not good.[/quote]

I would have complete sympathy for someone trying to save up for a $300k home in this area. But not someone complaining about not having a $1.2 million home when there are people having a hard time saving up for a $300k home.[/quote]

we're in the 300k range and it sucks.  just lost another bidding war today[/quote]
