[quote=Anonymous]There's no way I'd move. Only paying $1,100 a month is amazing. What's your age and how much retirement savings do you have? How much money will you have left after you would put down $500,000? Things like camps and before/after care, if you need it, are expensive. Clothing, tutoring if needed, sports, various fees, all add up. DH and I make around 280k and have saved a couple million now in our late 40s -- we always kept our housing expenses low and thst was a key to our wealth accumulation. I love never having to worry about money and being able to buy whatever small luxury we need. I find our house to be a headache and would never own by myself-- i hate having to shell out thousands on the random things that break. We've had to pay 20 grand in the last 2 years on fixing things on our house that was built in the 70s. DH has to do basic maintenance and if I was in my own I'd need to hire someone for that in addition to lawn care.[/quote]
