for a standard 20% downpayment so you aren't screwing yourself over so badly on your mortage, $30,000 only works if your house somehow magically only costs $150,000. Good luck finding that in this market. These days your downpayment needs to be closer to $100k.

The rest of the world outside the US exists? 150K gets you a very nice studio/loft in a brick building in central Budapest/Krakow/Belgrade.
