3 bedroom, two full baths still too much room. This is our 5th home, hopefully the last.


It's a new home that's at least 7 years old?

Wish we had waited to purchase as our income has increased significantly. However it allows us to save around 5,100 a month outside of retirement.

Goal is to purchase for around $1.4ish in around two years. Our goal is to have around 500k to put down.


+1 almost exact same story for us


Do you get concerned you missed out? We plan on buying in 2 years and I get worried rates will increase significantly, the tax bill will pass with a $500k mortgage deduction limit, home prices will continue to rise, etc. We do own a home we'd be happy staying in if we had to and I suppose we'd have a massive brokerage account in five years.


how do you know home prices will continue to rise?


I didn't say that. I said I WORRY this will happen
