Is this supposed to be some sort of demoralization post? If so, it's not very good. No one needs to put a 20% down payment on a home in order to qualify for a loan, all you need is 3.5% (if your credit is good) or 5.5% if it is not. A 458k home is easily affordable if you are married, that's 1.2k per person. Two people working full time at mcdonalds could afford that.

no one knows if the fed will stop raising rates. it sounded like they would slow down in December and potentially stop next year, but then the payroll numbers went up which means the economy isn’t hurting enough. it’s a total crap shoot and anyone saying they know what will happen is full of shit. hope for the best but prepare for the worst. in my case, the best outcome for me is the worst outcome for everyone else.

You probably used a shitty lender (try an online bank instead) or your income is -really- low in which case you should be focusing on getting a better job.

nope, i have a very good income/credit and talked to quality local lenders in the area i was thinking about buying. not one of them wanted to hear things like, "i'll just put the minimum down and take it from my IRA," they all wanted actual cash and more down.

the only person who told me otherwise was some kike from like realtor.com or something, who kept pushing for the bare minimum down and kept grilling me about my retirement and future inheritance. my goal is simple: stack cash as i max out my accounts, until i can put ~30-50% down at interest rates befitting an 800+ credit score, and pay it in full within 5-10 years.

yeah i'm convinced it's also based on (((zenstimate))), which is a fabricated jew number. the closest source of truth about any particular home's "value," is the tax-assessed value. that's what determines property taxes and capital gains taxes. in that case, the house i want to buy has been consistently worth $300-325k for the last several years, but the (((zenstimate))) has swung from $750k-450k in the last couple months

Mcdonalds in my area pays $18 an hour which equates to roughly 37k/yr, multiple that by two and you're at 74k which is around 6k a month before taxes or roughly 4.5k-5k after taxes depending on your deductions and withholdings. 400k is still affordable, but you won't living in luxurious conditions. That being said, even if you're making $18/hr now, it doesn't mean that you'll be making that in the future. Most home loans in america are fixed rate, so whatever youre paying now you'll be paying in the future when you'll hopefully be making more money.

It's kinda crazy how much of a ponzi scheme housing is when you've worked in construction. These homes overall aren't that difficult to build. A couple of guys with experience can plop down a nice bungalow in a few weeks, or not to mention the modern mutt cardboard house, which goes up over a weekend with insanely cheap material. The most difficult factor is likely the loggers generating the wood, who have a really tough and deadly job, but that's already reflected in the price of lumber.

Many don't want to believe it, but housing is only overvalued in the modern world due to massive influx of immigration and land permit restrictions. A lot on here want to believe that landlords are based, but it is within the interests of them to support liberal-progressive policy which favors keeping the ponzi alive.

i personally think anyone hoping for a "crash" was setting themselves up to be blackpilled. my assumption the last couple years, was that housing prices would just be normal, i.e., not hyperinflated by delusions caused by fake jew numbers, sometime around winter 2024. so you wouldn't be getting a $325k house for $200k, you'd be getting it for $350k instead of some retard price like $700k

>>52720836
that's just another reason to aim a bit higher when figuring out your down payment. (((loan origination fees))) and other such bullshit. also, in my case, legal entities to actually own the house. my research has shown that ownership under a revocable grantor trust, with an LLC as the beneficiary, is the best for privacy and liability. but those entities cost money. so add a few grand for the trust and whatever your state's LLC fee is (my state is ultra cucked in the latter regard with all loopholes closed - hence why my car is not owned by my foreign LLC)
