how much debt/bills do you pay each month (car note, insurance, student/personal loans, credit cards, cell phone)?
ETA: safe scenario: if you gross more than your mortgage a week then go for it. $67k/year. im no financial advisor but this should give you enough room to save if something comes up

If you make under $60k, I would not even consider it. Personally I wouldn't feel comfortable with that note unless i made over 80k but I tend to be on the safe side. Just remember, with a home, comes expenses related to the home. Also, do you have a car note or will you need a new vehicle anytime soon?

This guy gets it, 1 week's pay / 4 weeks per month = 25% maximum gross income to housing costs.
