Right out of college/grad school my husband and I intensely tackled debt.
Moved back to our home state while this was taking place. Looked at houses, but weren't comfortable with the monthly payment since we only had 3% down and I was looking to stay home with the kids once we had two.
Saved 20% Right as Covid hit and prices flew. Bid but just couldn't beat the competition, also now playing catch-up with the down payment.
Fast forward to today. Prices have doubled and the monthly with 20% Down is LARGER than the down payment with 3% down.
Discouraged, depressed. Never for a second regret staying home with my kids though.
