[quote=Anonymous]I don’t know if it helps, but sometimes it’s just dumb luck too. We have bought/sold homes over the past 10 years that have allowed us to climb the property ladder (no family help). We were fortunate in unintentionally buying and selling at the right times. Our mortgage would be 70% higher in our current house if we bought today with higher prices and interest rates, according to Zillow’s estimate. I think DH and I are hard workers (we both went to top colleges) but I also think a lot of our current economic position is more luck than skill. DH would disagree I think. [/quote]
