How much is your rent /mortgage?

[gonelifting]

OK I hope we all understand when someone says they pay $1200 month mortgage that it`s not necessarily the top price of their house. TQpew`s parents that own a 900,000 house could be paying $750 mortgage! They might have purchased the house for $140,000 many years ago and now is worth 900k.

My point is not everybody is fully mortgaged, some may be 50%, some 20%, some 80%.

On another note, those are some cheap ass rents you guys are paying. Damn! Also, 30 and 40k for a house? lol

I hate New Jersey.

And does anyone know the going rate for landlord's insurance?

My new mortgage is $150 a month less than my rent. The bummer is that I'm stuck in my lease through August which means another 3 months of paying both.

long beach cali.

$1350/month rent. 2br 2bath condo.

Some say you should buy. I'd love to, but in LA that means $500g's and $2500/month mortgage just so some seller can make $150k profit off of you. I don't have $1150 extra just lying around to pay for the higher mortgage cost. Home ownership, people keep forgetting -- requires more cost to you per month, plus huge upfront downpayment. Paying $30,000 in rent for 3 years is worth it, if house prices fall enough to where you can now buy that same house for $50k less. Erases ALL that rent cost you've paid just like that. All cuz you waited and shopped around for a good deal.
