What does this even mean.

Like, what is the time horizon of the person buying the home?

Is it by a certain age?

Is this assuming a minimum amount of expenses while saving?

The prompt doesnt make sense.

Keep in mind the study only considered the costs of securing a manageable mortgage payment (which includes principal, interest, property taxes and property insurance). Manageable means it wont exceed 28% of your gross household income. The analysis did not factor in closing costs or the costs one incurs as a homeowner after you get the keys to your new house.


Like, wont exceed 28% of gross income is a shit metric because people exceed that paying rent. A lot of times paying rent is higher of a monthly expense than a mortgage.

Post 2 nailed it.

I mean I COULD afford to buy a house in PA with my income but there are so many variables to cost it's a bull fucking shit metric to apply to everywhere.
