no one does 20% down without a gift and it's annoying that people pretend it's a thing. you do 5% down and eat the $100 a month PMI, because housing inflation goes faster than being able to save

Just be rich!

the appraisal district in Austin doubled my property's appraisal this year, lol. i thought i avoided getting owned after snagging a house last year, but no, i am still getting owned

File your homestead exemption dummy. You'll still be owned, but at least it caps the rate at which you get... more owned?

yeah but I bought a year ago and there’s a year long gap until homestead kicks in so I’m thoroughly owned

Oh poo poo is that new? I think ours started at the purchase price

Edit: Nevermind ours did start at the purchase price, but the year after was a negligible adjustment so maybe it was always like this :rip: your money I guess

Also lmao the building valuation went up 30% last year which means my house made more money than I did last year what the gently caress
