Most are including taxes and insurance in their #. I'm assuming you still have these expenses?

10% of take home goes to the mortgage. That’s the only note we have.

0% as well.

Was trying to lay it off before 50th birthday but missed it by a bit.

I love not having a mortgage or a car payment anymore.

Around 19% of take home after both fully maxing retirement.

Percent matters less…it’s about FCF available after housing.

16.5% of Net Income
11.5% of Gross Income

ETA: This includes homeowners and property tax. Wish it was closer to 10% of Net.

Is 18% too much?


No not at all ,and with 2 mortgages you would be at 28% where you have a rental property if you want it. At a minimum you can cover the mortgage and much of the costs so if it will better the life of your family it is a no brainer.
