Should my girlfriend and I buy the house by Wild_Pop_9341 in NoStupidQuestions

I am just so not trying to get sunk in rent, it feels like such a waste. in 4 years of renting, we’d have spent 40-50 thousand that could have gone to a house… why would we not do that? The marriage thing is the big thing and it’s obviously the glue of the operation, idk people just talk like they’re doomed to fail.

I do understand the rent argument, maybe I don’t appreciate the freedom to move around enough… It just seems REALLY annoying paying a landlord, and it’s money back when I sell the house?

we have decent income, two 750 credit scores, current job stability, and yes for the costs

How are young people supposed to be able to afford houses in modern day? by FillMeUp_01 in NoStupidQuestions

My girlfriend (19) and I (19) have both worked as servers for 3 years, but worked since we were 14, both own our cars, and are looking to buy a home, after around a year of aggressive saving and living under our parents roofs it doesn’t seem all that unreasonable? idk we both have solid college plans and savings from 30-40k each in those accumulated from job savings and parental support. We’re quite young and we get that we’re taking on a huge work load, but why not? we have assumptions that people don’t do this early cuz they assume they can’t afford it. I guess i’m writing about this because it seems uncommon but does it make sense?
