I've been saving for a down payment for a few years to buy a house in Torrance or thereabouts.

Last year, real estate prices seemed to have leveled off a bit, so I was wondering if they would go down this year, but I've been looking at SOLD prices for the past few months and they seem to be higher than before.
And when they go on sale, they are PENDING a week later.
Maybe it will still go up?

Even if I hoard downpayments, the price goes up and I can't buy it after all~.
More and more I can only buy in remote areas ~ ( Tears ).

It's a hassle when I think about the moving costs and all the other formalities!
Don't you think about settling down in a house in the suburbs ?
Moving is one of the most stressful things a person can feel, apparently.

Yes, moving is a lot of work, but the cost is about a month's rent, and it is more stressful to keep throwing away $40,000 every year for the rest of the year.

We have no intention at this time of continuing to live in a house in the suburbs, as we want to buy a house here while interest rates are low. We have lived in a convenient location for many years and now we plan to work hard for only two years to increase our savings.
If I like my new place, I may live there longer, but how many years is this 55+ Proposition on property taxes in effect ?
Sorry for my ignorance, but is it every 4 years when the president changes ?
For example. If I live in the suburbs for 5 years and then decide to move back here, is it possible that this proposition is no longer valid?

How much of a down payment do you need ? It's been a few years since I felt like no matter how much I saved, it was never enough 😭

↑ 20% minimum, but 30% because there are not many properties for sale right now.

You can buy without it though.

The monthly will be higher.

The average guideline is 20% of the property you want, and you get a monthly mortgage on a 30 year loan.
