I just moved from an area where houses start around 350k to somewhere they start closer to 175k - going to try for it later this year. 100% involves other trade-offs, but to me they are worth it. Not for everybody though. I'm tired of struggling with shitty landlords and dumping my money into 0 equity - I'll put that struggle toward a mortgage and repairs.
