        I pay a ridiculously high amount for rent. An equivalent mortgage a decade ago would have put me in a very large property. I pay much more for rent than anyone I know who owns. But I cant afford a house 🤷🏻‍♂️

      I couldn’t have bought my home without help from family for the down payment. That said, if interest rates didn’t make the monthly payments so high, there are some programs that will give you a grant for the down payment, for example ones that encourage people to move to more rural areas.
