Thank you for caring about the marriage as much as money. You rock.

My husband cares more about his investment portfolio than our house! We are multi- millionaires, live in a 1500 square foot house with 30 year old carpet, cracks in the ceilings and drywall and only one working bathroom that hasn't ever been renovated!!! I have BEGGED to get things renovated but he doesn't want to be inconvenienced by contractors coming and going! I'm almost to the point, after 45 years of marriage, of stepping away because I feel like my wants and needs are completely irrelevant to him. Dude, get that girl a house!!!

Idiot. As to what was happening to the income from those properties, it sounds like he was using it to pay off the properties and saving to buy more properties.

Sounds like he is partners with his sister not his wife.

This was a brilliant episode. Great advice from John and George. Love the good humour of the caller as well.

Waiting 2 years to buy with cash really doesn't save any money because over those 2 years renting at $2,100 a month they are burning $50,000. Just buy it now and lessen the blow on interest by paying it off early. Agree with the hosts.

I live in the Minneapolis / Saint Paul Area. There are nice houses that can be had for a reasonable price. I would move to buy a house sooner than later around here. The prices are not going to go down. It really depends on how long of a commute he wants to make. The wife does not want to live in a duplex, She wants a nice stand alone home. If you go 20 miles outside of the cities 400k will by a very nice house. Now if you MUST live in the ritzy areas then you can spend a lot more and get a lot less. They do not need to live on millionaires row.

I bet they have a lovely marriage. If the caller stayed single and frugal this whole time, he could live off his rentals and never have to work.

I don’t think a lot of people understand how much you have to put down to not be house poor. For example if you lived in Connecticut and made 100k gross it would be around $6,000 a month. Meaning a mortgage of $1500 on a 15 yr fixed. You would have to legit put down $110,000 or 55% down for a $200,000 house.. which is hard to find. That would take at least 3 years maybe 4 but then the house will be $250,000. For a $300,000house You would have to put $187,009 down.. and if you could save $3200 a month it would take you 6 years roughly.. Also all of that is after you get out of debt , emergency funds, sinking funds . So you’re talking about a possible 8-10 journey towards home ownership. What are your thoughts?

It’s cheaper to keep her

Buy the house, or look forward to loosing all the rental properties in divorce.

You can afford a home, get it. What's the point of getting money if you ain't gonna enjoy it?
