Can you buy a house in houston with 100k a year?
Currently in Austin, and trapped like a rat in a cage.
my household income is 100k a year, and here in Austin, 100k is barely enough to afford a 2 br apartment, and the idea of home ownership is a joke. The median house cost here is something like 600k, and rents over the last year jumped up around 30-40%. Austin, Georgetown, leander, cedar park, Pflugerville, is all pretty much unobtainable now.
I know ‘Houston’ is a catch-all for all its suburbs and surrounding communities, but just trying to find out if its like Austin, where home ownership is impossible, or something actually obtainable.
The nature of my job requires me to be in larger cities, and I have no desire to live in Dallas.
