safigueroa12 you are right. Itemizing a mortgage deduction is nice but that happens after you’ve bought a house, put a load of money down, and payed a year’s worth of mortgage bills on a depreciating asset…

If your wife is pressuring you just tell her you’ll save $X amount (make X big) and can buy a much better, bigger dream house in a few years than you can now.

For $500k today you can live in this

Or for $200k in a few weeks you can live in this.

OK maybe it’s a slight exaggeration but you get the idea.
