This should be re-evaluated. In 2018 we bought our 4 bedroom house for 189k which was cheap for a new build. Now my home value has increased to 230k. Buying a similar new home from the same builder in 2022 would cost you 240k minimum. That is a huge increase in the course of 3 years. We are a family of 4 with a combined gross income of around 105k and we get by with a little extra a month. I'm talking like 100 bucks left.my grocery bill has increased from 100 dollars to 150 bucks since last year.
