Buyin 1st primary res.- buying starter home VS house to grow into
So as the title states, what're some opinions when it comes to buying a starter home, below budget, VS buying 4 bedroom home that may stretch budget 40% of post tax income.
Reason being and things I see, buying a starter house..living in it for 5 years, only paying off interest, and then moving again. So why not buy a primary that I know I can and will grow into with the serious girlfriend. May stretch now, but with dual income it becomes extremely affordable. No moving, relocating, and buying a house that don't need anything major for ~10 years is great vs coming in below budget and I have to do a roof year after next.
