Reply to comment by TheK0ntrarian in to those that work & own a house.. by chickennugar

I own a home on a salary of 63K. It is possible, but it can be very stressful at times. I have 2 children and a wife who is a stay at home. I got quite lucky securing a USDA loan.

At times? I can't grasp how it is not all the time, you must budget really well.

It is hard more often that not, but it's worth the budgeting to have a secure place for my family.

To answer other questions, it's a ~1700 Sq FT house in Tolland. I paid 135K for it, 0 down, no PMI.
