Bought my first house as a cover driver still not working a full week or hitting full time hours, but skated through the approval process by using my peak season pay stubs. Had no trouble affording it on my income alone. Moved up last year to a house a bit out of our budget anticipating future earnings, it’s tight for sure. I wanted to take advantage of the inflated housing to get out of the old place. It’s doable, you just have to want to sacrifice. I got rid of the streaming services, eat out less, coupon, downsized the car payment to lesson the blow. It’s amazing the look on peoples faces when you extrapolate their stupid spending in particular the guys that go to Dunkin’ every day and waste money on coffee and breakfast. It’s thousands of dollars a year. That’s a mortgage payment.
