    I wish. 😂 I’m renting a $2,300/mo dump in SoCal; I’m 90% ready to bail but my wife doesn’t want to leave.

      $2900 dump in northern California here. Wife also won’t leave. Comparable mortgage is like 6-7k. Shit sucks.

        It’s weird, I never really wanted to own a house until I experienced the LA area rental market. But buying will probably never be an option for us even with dual six figure incomes. 😞

          Yeah man, like I definitely can buy one out here, but my quality of life would drop significantly. I’ve got enough for a down payment n we both make 220ish k/ year combined. I just don’t want to spend all my fucking money on a place to shit and sleep.

        Ours recently raised it by $100 too but we don’t complain because it’s way cheaper than the local market. We consider ourselves lucky, but it’s still a an expense that makes life painful.
