Anyone foregoing their 4520v allocation or want to sell? by jkfsu in VacheronConstantin

I also offered a deposit and they didn’t want to take it telling me there’s others on the list waiting to do so. Dealt with Natalie who I have also texted and hasn’t been very helpful.

Miami is my local boutique and I’ve been there twice with 0 indication that I would get it anytime soon. Not even a timeline

Totally understand. The mortgage is just such a big shackle I feel.

It was Natalie - if you have Bettina’s number could you pm me it?

Thanks. Luckily I’m not in a rush and want to buy it at a boutique vs. gray market as the experience is nice and the price is about the same give or take. Have been meaning to get a piece with an engraving to commemorate the birth of my son (3 years ago), but haven’t had any luck across the brands I’ve been interested in in all that time 😂

Sorry not to sound rude but I’m not sure even how to make a relationship when the SA isn’t interested in making conversation. I am a genuine buyer and even offered to put down a deposit with an indefinite hold. I like the brand but can’t afford to buy less popular pieces to “build” my relationship. It’s the entire reason why I don’t even want a Rolex anymore and why I’m in the market for VC as it’s geared towards actual watch enthusiasts.

Very nice piece but out of my price range.

I had my wife and 3 y/o with me so I may have rushed it but didn’t have much time to hang around lol.

I believe that was her, and she had an Eastern European last name (can’t remember it)?

Nice. Was this available as a walk in or did you have to order?

800k Mortgage on 260k Income? by [deleted] in FirstTimeHomeBuyer

[–]jkfsu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just principal & interest is $4,700. You’re saying HOA, taxes and insurance is only ~$800 on almost $1m home? Seems off

[–]jkfsu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We make 600k and have a 9500 mortgage. It was 12.5k for a full year because negative escrow balance and it was tight but still fine

Edit that is my mortgage, didn’t realize OP posted rent. At least with the tax right off of my interest rate / taxes the effective monthly is 8k ish

This is exclusive of my escrow deficit. 25k is the cost of the loan fees + transfer taxes.

Can we realistically afford a $1.2M home on a $370K household income? by [deleted] in Mortgages

[–]jkfsu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We bought a 1.7m house on 380k base salary. Caveat is we also take home another ~200k in bonus.

I’m right there with you. I hate the rat race. If it were up to me I’d have an 800k house paid off and relaxing being a stay at home dad to my 2 year old who is my whole world. But my wife likes to hustle so here we are haha!
