The asking price of the house is $869k.

Is that an expensive house to you?


BTW, who is the Pastor?

869k gets you a nice place in the neighborhood of Watts out here.

Random note: I’ve had to drive through Watts at 2:00am a few times for work. It’s unnerving.

Yes it is. I wouldn't entertain a house that price unless I had (oddly enough) about 350k in household income

No, the price in itself isn't an overly expensive home for BR. The point I was trying to make is that I didn't think pastors made the kind of money to be able to afford an $870K home.

Why? Is he not allowed to earn additional income that’s relative to his occupation?

Do all servants of the Lord have to live like Catholic Priest?

BR isn't a cheap housing market. You have to pay to move far enough away from the ghetto and still not be 9 miles and an hour from work.

One pastor I’m good friends with makes about 25k a year. There’s 2 others I know but I don’t know their income. But after seeing what they drive and where they live, it isn’t much more than my friend. All 3 have been pastors for 10+ years and one of them over 20 years.

he's "allowed" whatever he's given.

they probably should. pastors shouldn't be living in 4,000 sq ft houses.

there's nothing Christian about that.

LOL...second one

Seriously, I know of one person who's son is a pastor in DS and there's no way he's making anything like this. He probably makes 30K. Just makes me think when I see these megachurch pastors having these fancy, expensive homes.

Once again, who is the Pastor? Maybe he had a book deal, maybe he gets paid to travel and give speeches, whoever it is, is allowed to earn his money anyway he chooses.

I doubt just being a Pastor of a church pays enough to afford that house.

Maybe so but that's a huge salary for a preacher. I know plenty of doctors that don't make that. And yes, an almost 900k house is certainly higher end in this market.
