Kind of. Things will move, not sure if I will have a bed ready though.

If you're younger, stretch yourself a bit more. Any mortgate 10 years later will probably be worth a laugh once you've hit your prime salary years.

5 years on. My monthly payments seem ridiculously piddly now. The benefits of lower rates and large increases in income.

I'm less than a handful of year from finishing off mine.

Do you have an idea if the value of the house has changed signifficantly? Would you sell it for less or more if you try to sell today?

[Dauphin]

Houses in the area are about unchanged to marginal increase. Would probably break even after transaction costs.

Yes, same here. Now the wife is back at work after maternity we're massively overpaying, which takes our monthly payment back up to what it was when we bought and can still afford it comfortably, ( +insane childcare costs).

OTOH the house price hasn't really changed/has possibly slightly declined.

[Dauphin]

Had an agent in today. Looks like I'm going to be up about 5-10 percent. I feel relieved. We've already moved out.

you'll never own it and you can't take it with you

whores?...

What ever happened to the whores? Inquiring minds want to know.

[Sava]

Yeah. Tell us about the whores.
