[quote=bearishgurl]AN, I think you are an anomaly on this Board because you don’t have “grandiose” views of your housing needs, such as buying a very large residence in a newer, heavily-encumbered housing tract. You (and possibly your co-workers who are living on one income) are no doubt living a more “spartan existence” than many here on this Board would likely accept.
And isn’t your spouse actually employed?[/quote]
Reread my post BG. I said my coworkers, not me. Also, what’s spartan today is luxury in 1950s. They all have two cars and live in houses larger than 3/1 or 3/2 1200 sq-ft.
