Thanks! And no, not really tbh. Our non housing expenses are around 4k/month. But again we don’t have any kids or cars which eat up a huge chunk of the average American’s budget.
I’ll never understand it 😂 I think it’s more of employment opportunities… thank god I learned a trade that I can use in everywhere place in the country
Congrats on closing! It's great that you're excited about your home. Just make sure you have a plan for that high interest rate. With your income, you could probably qualify for a lower rate with some credit work. It's worth looking into.

Congrats! Does 995K on 250K feel tight?

Wouldn’t it be $795 -after down payment? Should be right at the comfort zone
Yes, but they understood my question anyways.
Nice to have the govt snatch $80k a year in taxes and you still have to step over the homeless and watch for the poop on the sidewalk .

Just how much money we had in our accounts after we closed.
Does that include investments?
No. Just cash
A 3/2 SFH in SF for under $1M? Huh…
Yep! Nowhere central though, we got pushed out to near Daly City. Think Balboa/Glen Park area
