In Seattle where so many people have been earning so much this doesn't really work out unless you're a dual-income couple or don't have kids and don't need much space. The house prices here have been driven up so much even modest houses are going to be a good chunk of your income if you're a single earning household. You pretty much have to use your RSUs to get a downpayment.
- _huayra_ 4y agoThat's true, any of my colleagues who have bought houses recently were dual-tech DINK and had to sell off a bunch of RSUs. Single-income folks just have to wait it out and hope prices come down, or just give up the narrow search and get some place in Tacoma :/
