Theres so many little things that fuck up in a house so you should have extra monty to pay for it.

You cant even get a 1 bed 1 bath shitbox in my area for under $300k, so if you see something under $300k go for it
Here in this part of Nebraska 250-300k and I can pry get something nice custom built. I would def want to be making more then 60k/year for that big of loan though. If that was the case, I would be living in that new house right now.
