There are plenty of millennials on here that live in 350k houses on 85k income.




That isn't THAT far fetched.

And that's from a dude living in a sub 600 square foot microhome with my wife AFTER living in a 3400 square foot home with the same wife.

The old rule of thumb used to be don't buy more than 2.5x your income. Obviously other debts, bills and down payment come into play there but that's still over 4x your annual income. A lot of younger people are house poor or they rent so they can live in expensive areas. Whatever, to each their own.
