[quote=Anonymous]I make a similar salary, but I'm in my 50's. If I had been making that at 31, I hope I would have been saving 40 percent of more of my income. If I were you, I could see buying a small home in a close-in suburb, and then doing a remodel (if you'd like to do such a project). It might be kind of a rewarding (if not fun) experience. (I could see not wanting to live in a condo or townhouse, just because you're single. A small house would be nice.) Here is a cute house in 20816 (close-in Bethesda, right across the DC line). Granted, this house is pending. But if you had purchased it for the asking price, you could have done a really nice remodel. And the homes in that neighborhood hold their value. https://www.realtor.com/realestateandhomes-detail/6502-Brookes-Hill-Ct_Bethesda_MD_20816_M52178-17300?from=srp-list-card[/quote]
