It doesn’t take BigTech salaries to do most of those things. We had a 3100 square foot house built in the Northern suburbs of Atlanta in the “good school system” for $335K. Going by the 28% rule, I would have only had to make around $100k. We just sold the house last year for $670K. It would be around $5000 a month all in - principal + interest + insurance + property taxes + PMI. I did my calculations based on putting 5% down. The median senior software engineer salary in Atlanta is $170K. Married with two incomes would easily make that affordable and accomplish other short and long term goals. Admittedly, I would probably move further out in the burbs or buy a smaller place in 2025. |
