[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm 26 and I live in a $1.6mm 3-story, 3500 sq. ft. townhouse. I only needed to mortgage a little over 200k, so I pay $1100/month on a 15-year fixed. Back story--I inherited the townhouse and I didn't actually need the mortgage but we wanted to modestly update the kitchen and rewire the house. The property taxes are $16k/year. Considering our income, I don't feel like we are stretching it.

The home has also been in my family for years so it's nice to carry on the history.[/quote]

LOL![/quote]

I don't know why you think it's so funny. It wasn't a joke. [/quote]

Really, you don't get how nice it must be to be in your position????? Of course you're not "stretching it," you've basically inherited 1.5M.  :roll: [/quote]

I get it. I just don't think it's "LOL!" worthy. By "stretching it," I was referring to being able to afford the property taxes, maintenance, all the expenses of a big house. It's not as if we can't afford to live in the house and it would have broken my heart if we weren't in a position to live there. I wouldn't be able to bear selling the house. And, yes, it's definitely nice to live in the house that I grew up in. [/quote]

Clueless, totally clueless. :roll:[/quote]

It's not all about money. You can say I'm clueless but for me it's about the memories. I know I'm fortunate. Thanks, though![/quote]

More evidence that you can't fix stupid.[/quote]
