I’m 30 and will never be able to buy a house in Ca unless a historical crash again. There’s no small starter homes anymore. Want to move but time isn’t right

Which "25" do I choose? I was out of University for almost 2 years and had been at my job for a little over a year. Bought at $72k. Did a lot of inexpensive but labor intensive renovation and sold it four years later for $94k to move into a $136k home which I sold 2 years later to move into a $205k home.

You ask the wrong question. You ask about something everyone who can fog a mirror did in 2007.
Ask about how many own their home outright. |

Still in a rental. Doesn't help that I kinda live like a nomad currently and have lived in 4 states in 2 years because of my work. Currently have a pretty good gig though working from home and have definitely been looking, but man is it a bad time to be a buyer right now.

Second paid off at 35, we had cash to do it for several years, but were hanging onto it for a down payment on a new property. Still haven't found a new property. |

25 in 2017. 1500sf newer home on 1/3 acre in a cookie cutter neighborhood. Nothing fancy, but my since acquired wife and I intend to stay here a few more years.

6 months after graduating, 21. Used my bonus for down payment and took a variable rate loan. Small town and small house that needed some work.
I rented out one bedroom for a year or so. Ended up selling it three years later for same price I paid. |

33.
Closed on it in 2013. Would've bought more home had I known I was going to meet my future wife within a couple months after moving in. This is why we're looking to build in the next 24-30 months. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: 20, used my enlistment bonus from the army reserves and money my parents made me save from the Co-Op program I did my last two years of high school as a down payment. I worked full time in HS by coming into my co op job 3 hours early and working Saturdays which allowed me to have substantial savings when I graduated. At the time I hated my parents making me save that money, but now it all makes sense. It’s not a perfect house, but at 27 it’s more than enough for the four people who live in it. Wife and I are now looking to pay cash for 40+ acres to start building a house on. You have it. |
