I'm fixng to buy a new house an was wondering what everyones house payment is. If you don't want to say that's fine. Just interesting to me to see how much everyone else is paying because mine just doubled with a new house. Thanks
House payment
- Thread starter wikdlmm
- Start date
gonna depend a lot on location. In Southern Indiana I paid less then $90 a square foot on a 1 acre lot for my house so the payment is relatively low. $850 a month with PMI included and tax and insurance escrowed. We also got a good interest rate (3.68 I believe) and pay an even $1k a month to put extra towards principal.
Not the wife and I's dream home but it's cheap and it allows plenty of wiggle room in the finance's for us to do as we please. We're both under 30 so we have plenty of time to figure out where we want to settle down for good at and enjoy life while we do.

I bought right at the peak in 2007 house was $235,000 interest was %6.75 on a 30 year fixed and payment is $1680. I guess it could be around $1100-1300 if I refianced, but I want to finish my yard before I do it for the better appraisal. House is not very big I think a little over 1600 square feet living footage and has a finished 2 car attatched garage on 2 acres.
Matt..... your house payment is cheaper than my truck payment was!!!
Puts things in perspective having to do with location :rofl:

lol I know,, I actually looked into moving to Cali for a job that sounded like killer pay compared to here,,,,,,, then I went house shopping!!!! HOLY HELL!! My house would sell for like $350k or better out there and i only gave $130K for it. 1700sq ft, two car garage, attached glass sunroom, full brick exterior. I was shocked and decided to stay put.
Local University is putting Muslim students in the big hi buck condo foreclosed units at local banks and paying the bank rent. The Fed gov. pays the University comp to put the Mus in the house since he's underpriveledged etc. so the bank is happy and keeping the repos on the books rented out. Great huh???
happy to say my wife and i just paid off our house. bad news is her grandpa passed away and left us some money and that's what we used to pay it off. we would pay it all back ten times over to have him back though.
best we could do was to name our son after him:thumb:
