Participant1) You are almost debt free, perhaps you should get entirely debt free.
2) have you done a rent vs Buy analysis? does the house make any sense on a rental basis?
3) Can you afford it on a single income?
4) Are you sure you will be there at least 5 years?
5) The reason a 20% downpayment is good is you can
mark it down 10%, and still sell and get out.patb

Participant[quote=NeetaT]In my opinion, healthcare is not a right. Healthcare is a service that is priced via supply and demand just like other goods and services. [/quote]
So what’s the Equilibrium price for an Ambulance ride?
When you are having a heart attack, what is the price you will pay for a ride?

Therefore, car dependency is a given in San Diego. Only the old cities in America are truly walkable (SF, Chicago, DC, NY, Boston, Philly) where you don’t need a car.
But even DC is not really walkable because the street are so wide. The monuments are too large and not on an intimate human scale. Plus the area is a large spread out metro area. In order to get around, you still need a car, even if you don’t use it as much.[/quote]
Sorry Brian.
You are wrong. DC is eminently walkable, what you are mistaking is the Mall from the neighborhoods.
That’s like saying “Animal Park” is quite unwalkable due to the distances to the grocery store.Nobody lives at the monuments, heck, almost nobody works at the monuments. The monuments are meant to be Monumental.
Spend a weekend in Adams Morgan, or Northwest, or
Waterfront, then let me know.The monuments are far apart because it tires out the tourists and keeps them far apart from each other.
