@humphreytalks: The Median Age of a First Time Homebuyer is now 40 Years Old. If you own a home under 40, you are now in rare company. Redfin estimates that you need to earn $112,131 per year to afford the median priced home - which is roughly $25k more than the typical household actually makes. Let me know in the comments if you own a home, what your payment is if youre comfortable sharing, and your age. #tiktokencyclopediacontest

If you use a loan to “buy” a home you’re essentially renting (interest) from a loaner/bank. No wonder people rent from a company or individual. There isn’t much risk involved in renting. The principle of owning a house takes way too long to supersede the interest payments.

if your choosing to invest instead of purchase. Your rent money is doing nothing for you. I would also be curious of what the plan is when you retire? Are you going to have enough invested to cover rent 20 or 30 + years form now??

39 and bought at 27. I live in an affordable area in California. We bought at 3.5% for $208k. We hope to move to a larger house in a couple years since it’s unlikely our kids can afford to buy and we want space for them as adults.

I would not say I’m choosing to rent. I’m forced to rent because of housing prices

I’m 33 and I bought a one bedroom condo at 29. It cost $125k, my parents gave me $20k and I put down all my savings. I think it was around $15k. My mortgage is $600 a month

Wife and I are 28 years old and fortunate to have been able to buy a home earlier this year 😁.

I think you are very informative. However “ choosing “ is probably not accurate. Most people just flat out can’t afford even if they want to.

I was 31 when my husband and I bought a home. It’s cheaper than renting in my area, but still very expensive.

30 years old, renting, and no plans to buy a home in the near future. Renting/investing can make a lot more sense economically in cities especially if you are single and not entirely sure where you want to live for the next few decades!

renting or buying isnt far off from costs and you either keep your mortgage payments or u give them to the landlord
