    Go house-hunting and find a house.
    Take 1% of its value.
    Add that to the planned monthly cost of ownership.

    PS: 1% is conservative. 1 1/2 percent more likely, 2% within the realm of possibility.

    Just curious EconProf, are you including utilities as a part of that 1%?

    Thanks, Kev, that is the kind of talking down I am looking for.

    Hi Enorah,

    Read TG’s previous thread before you catch the knife. He was talked out of it and he is thankful about waiting. You can hold on a bit more. Just enjoy the view and keep your faith. If you were 100% committed you would have done it already.

    Here is the heading: “Save TG, he’s reaching for the knife User Forum Topic Submitted by temeculaguy on November 11, 2007 – 11:54pm”

    I predict with 20% down a mortgage will soon be cheaper than rent. I know, I know then the landlords will just lower the rent. Nothing like asking the landlord to lower the rent. Try it, if s/he refuses then move. If they do lower the rent then stay and you can save even more towards a house of your own.
