Hey all!
Looking for some advice from some fellow moustachians! A little bit of background - 26 years old, single, working in the IT field making ~$120k annually. I currently live out in Phoenix, AZ with the availability to work remote entirely with my current employer. I have recently moved back from the east coast, and am staying with the parents (rent free) until I decide to pull the trigger on buying a house. I have absolutely no debt, and ~$50k in savings. My question is this: I have recently been looking at a few homes, and a few that really "stuck" out to me were in the $350k range. From an investment perspective, I feel the home is sound(specifically looking for homes with 1+ acres + electrical,water, etc.). With this being my first official home that I will be purchasing, is this too much of a home to entertain? Do I save up the entirety of the 20% down to get rid of PMI? What would other moustachians do in this situation, keeping in mind FI as the priority goal.
