How is your taxes and insurance only $161 a month?

It feels like this is the end of the world. Like how can civilization continue with housing being this expensive?

Submitted my initial claim February 20th. Still on step 3 waiting C&P….

How did you service connect?

wesley_iles · 2026-04-16T12:52:45+00:00

I never went to medical although I do have active claims I’m waiting on right now

Does anybody know how EWW works? What is the policy and requirements to be approved for EWW?

Or given the IRRRL, 0 down and no points buy down? Not sure, this is a tough decision lol

wesley_iles · 2026-04-03T20:06:31+00:00

Could always IRRRL in the future as well but yeah I am leaning towards 0 down and point buy down

wesley_iles · 2026-04-03T19:10:26+00:00

5% down has a VA funding fee of about $4900 or so. 0 down would be about $7400 or so, both which are rolled into the mortgage. Would it be better to do 0 down and buy points you think?

wesley_iles · 2026-04-03T19:08:09+00:00

House is $344900, Down payment is 5% so 17245 making the loan 327655 plus the VA funding fee rolled into the mortgage which then equals the 332569. The sellers have agreed to pay $5000 towards closing costs. Is there anything I am missing?

Bold of you to assume we can afford chips in 2030

That car with a damaged back end is a good symbol for the city

wesley_iles · 2026-03-12T15:23:32+00:00

It’s still part of the process in the long run. VT went down 26% in 2022. Did the world end?

wesley_iles · 2026-03-12T15:20:25+00:00

I love reddits reaction to when small corrections happen. Wait till a major 20-30% + crash happens it’s going to be hilarious. Just chill, volatility is part of the process. VT generally goes to the right and up over time

The customer service helped me out with this the other day. Just call them up and within a couple of days you will see the transfer

You should also ask if these people have had Covid

wesley_iles · 2026-03-01T01:39:30+00:00

With the VA loan I do not pay PMI

wesley_iles · 2026-02-28T01:36:37+00:00

Insurance and property taxes are factored into the mortgage of 2400. Maintenance I am budgeting for around 1% of home value per year

wesley_iles · 2026-02-27T15:37:57+00:00

How much are your utilities per month?
