I'm currently making about 65k/year and would like to start saving to buy my first house, hopefully in about 2-3 years. Median home prices in my area are about 350k. My question is where do I save money for a down payment? A high yield savings account? buying ETFs through a brokerage? something else? I also have about 30k in student loans that I don't have to start paying for another 9 months, although they are accruing interest. The loans are between 3.5-5%. Should I pay these off first? I'm also contributing 15% of my salary to my 401k, should I adjust the percentage? Thanks in advance for the help!
