My salary didn’t change at all, but homes went up 82%. The money I saved for a down payment and my salary no longer are good enough for this home and many others. This ain’t even a “good” home either. It was a 200k meh average ok home before. Now it’s simply unaffordable
The main downside is you have to pay closing costs to move. That means you should plan to stay in the home at least a handful of years or else you’d lose money likely. But with the market the way it is, get a house ASAP cause its going up like a roller coaster.
I bought mine 5 years ago and its gone up 50% in value since then.
