[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I really can't believe the OP's question is really a debate. A $7K mortgage is easily doable on $500K. People on here must have crazy high expenses if they think things will be tight for the OP. [/quote] Right..we make about 550k and save 150k+ a year with a 6.5k mortgage. We live a great life. Even if our mortgage was 8k we would still save a good amount. [/quote] Thanks, I was really starting to think I was crazy. My spouse and I make $250K combined and are looking to spend $1.2-$1.4 million. We are mid 30s with no kids, and will be putting approximately 40-50% down. We have no family help, no inheritances, etc. We take nice vacations and don't really feel like we deprive ourselves of anything, but things like nice cars don't matter to us (and yes, I know having no kids helps a lot also). But I guess people really don't save anything because it seems like we are outliers in having more than enough for a big down payment. Can't believe our competition is people making $500-$600K; just figured they'd be aiming much higher.[/quote] $250K income with a $1.2M-$1.4M house? You are nuts! [/quote] You are nuts for realizing a 700k mortgage on 250k is incredibly reasonably. No kids helps too. [/quote] They’re also putting 50% down. I’m doing the same with a higher priced house but mostly in cash. Cash helps a lot. [/quote]
