Can I afford a house?
I currently earn $28k per year, and have $80k set aside for a down payment.
I so badly want to move out of my parents house. I have tried for years to get promoted/get a better job, but have had no luck.
I don’t have any debt or crazy expenses, but I have a dog I need to provide for.
I know houses come with a lot of expenses even beyond the mortgage, so I feel I will never be able to do it.
Please let me know if you feel I could afford a house, and at what price?
Will provide any other details needed
