And get a loan to buy one on what? I couldn't even get a loan for a fucking car. My dad had to take loan for it and I was paying him back. How will I get a 30 year loan for a fucking house?
literally my boomer parents even floated the idea of buying a condo for my partner and I and we just "pay them rent" aka the mortgage, since they have actual money. It's the downpayment, the insane competition with cash offers and insane upgrades we'd need to do with most houses in our price range. We can't afford shit anywhere anymore, but our landlord charges us 750 a month, so we're just continuing to save as best we can. Interest rates just went up AGAIN, and they're even worse than before with how much houses cost.

Since I was 15.
Yet my parents think I'm a lazy piece of shit because I don't own a house as a 40 year old single mom. The "starter" homes in my area are like 500k.
I'm honestly exhausted.
