I’m on the approach to my 40s and most of the people I know my age are still renting. I was lucky enough to buy an abandoned property after the 08’ crash for 30k, and that was only because I was able to secure a large personal loan from my credit union.
Even though I’m making a lot more money now, I don’t think I’d be able to afford the neighborhood I’m currently living in based on how much it’s appreciated over the last 10 years.
