You have no clue.

Boomers buying homes in the mid to late 70s and early 80s paid high interest rates. 9-12% depending on when they purchased a home.

I bought my first home In 1976. I put down 20% and got my rate “down” to 9-1/4 %. In 1981 I bought another home and mr interest rates was over 11%. You are blessed and don’t even know it

A lot of posters are being pretty disingenuous. I remember in '81; a new construction 3 bed 2 bath in a new neighborhood was about $60k.
