Most people think buying a house starts with:
💭 “What’s the price of the house?”
Here’s the truth: the real question is
💡 “What’s this going to cost every month?”
Nobody writes a $400,000 check upfront. Payments happen in monthly chunks, just like Netflix, a car, or a phone bill.
The same $400K home in Spokane could cost one buyer $2,300/month… and another $1,800/month. 🏡
Why the difference? Rate, taxes, insurance, and loan type all change the math.
So if it feels impossible to afford that $400K home, the real numbers might surprise you.
