Rent is $3000 a month around here. Mortgages aren’t a fair comparison since there are many factors in reducing that monthly payment. One problem I’ve heard of is people being denied on their mortgage application because they supposedly don’t make enough or have good enough credit so they’re stuck making much more expensive rent payments instead. Check out the rental market near you, it’s likely more expensive than your mortgage payment.
Damn, much is rent near you? My mortgage is only $1k/mo including taxes and insurance.
