Buying a Home in your 20's in 2024! Housing Crisis, Costs & REAL Expectations

[@andresvidoza]

Guys when it comes to the Mortgage section, things can get a lot more complex but at least it gives you an idea of how things work. Also if you've recently gone through the same process, dont be afraid to share your experience! Itll definitely help a bunch of people!

[@ThisIsE]

Great video, Andres! As someone who lives far away, I find it incredibly insightful to be able to compare living costs and property expenses.

In the U.S., housing market has gone through the roof to where me, my partner, and 2 of my buds are sharing a house. It truly discourages anyone, at least in 2024, to buy a house anymore. Hopefully, when the housing bubble bursts, I can come back to this vid whenever me and my partner are able to afford buying a home in the future! Either way, an amazing vid Andres!

[@andresvidoza]

dude its so wack the market. It just makes no sense anymore. I wish you all the best man I think everyone is waiting for this bubble to finally burst!

[@meetseth3]

It wont. The bubble will never burst. Even if it does, it'll be very small@@andresvidoza

Ok... I'm 28, I make 100k a year, probably 120k soon with a new job in discussion. My wife make 70k a year. We're in an old, not so good 2 bedroom apartment in Montreal and we're paying 870$ a month. We're tolerating this unit as we hope to buy in the next ~4 to 5 years. This video almost made me cry, how on earth could we afford that much, I mean, 550k for a 2 bedroom, from the price I see everyday, it's not even the priciest units. It's depressing, literally. I work like a fucking dog every fucking day, I'm far from the lowest paid here, and even in my situation it seems unrealistic and almost impossible to be owner one day. How tf did we ended up here ? The economy and this country are sick.

[@andresvidoza]

The economy makes absolutely no sense. I really really really feel for you. Honestly I have to help my parents pay their house for this year so they can at least start saving up some money. Nothing makes sense anymore. The housing market needs to crash.

[@KG-rc3hu]

If you’re making that much that young in your career and paying so little in rent, you should be able to save up for a huge downpayment in no time. Keep saving and hopefully the market in Montreal with stabilize, hopefully in the next few years

[@kamranurrahman6434]

I’m literally in the same boat @sneyek 130k-145k plus wife at 55k and still struggling to find a livable place that isn’t past saint Jerome or Boucherville - not just real estate market in Montreal but general cost of living have gone up way to much in recent years

[@Leukick]

@@andresvidoza All deliberately done by those who control this world. They're trying to push things so no one owns anything, and they literally expect us to "be happy" about it.

[@pratibhaverma9176]

the only advise I can give you to do a downpayment even its 5 % and own a home. I moved to Canada a few years ago, single and bought a condo. You guys have two incomes!!! I had only one.

[@paulnkosi8557]

What a beautiful detailed breakdown of the how to purchase a home, and kudos to you and your family man from humble beginnings to living your best life actually living your dream its really amazing, im inspired

[@mllarson]

Renting is fine if you are young and are uncertain what you want to do in life or where it will take you. I rented for about 1.5 decades before putting down roots in a very nice small town in the middle of nowhere. If I want to do things in a larger town, those towns are just an interstate trip away.

[@Sneyek]

The problem with renting nowadays is that it cost way too much. 2k, 2.5k for a 2 bedroom unit in Montreal ?? How people are supposed to save money, even on a 15 years period to be able to afford down payment ? ^^'

[@mllarson]

@@Sneyek You don't have to live in a big city. There is the option of living in a smaller area and working remotely. Not every profession is able to do that, but if you can, why not consider it? Also, in a smaller town, you might get paid less, but your expenses can also be less. Really it depends on your tolerance of cost vs. convenience.

[@konstantinu8808]

@@Sneyek Idk… it all comes different in comparison. Eg I live on Balkans where I pay about $1400 for a decent 2br in a city center including a parking lot and utilities. But my income is about 70% of a similar position in Toronto or Vancouver. And then you have SF where you can make 2.5x more but will pay $4k+ for a 2br. Honestly, 2-2.5k for a 2br in Montreal doesn’t sound that bad at all.

[@Sneyek]

My previous job was 100% remote. My next one will be 100% on site. Same job, just a bit more management. I work in VFX as a developer, so literraly 100% behind a screen. But a lot of companies don't want remote. It's already hard to get a job, especially nowaday (in VFX for what I know). If I move out of the city, what I want like crazy, I would have to refuse ~50/60% jobs. In my situation, it usually mean no job and no more work permit, so I would lose my wife. (-> We would find a solution, but it mean she also leave her job and we lose everything we built together).@@mllarson

[@Sneyek]

Well, it really is, as the income did not increase. Or just a bit. For instance, we were looking for a new condo 2 years ago, one we like was 1600CAD. We did not take it, one year later ? 2200CAD. Now it's like 2500CAD. If the price is not the problem, the speed at which the cost increase is.@@konstantinu8808

[@LiveInnerCity]

This is such valuable information for young people navigating the housing market. It's tough out there, but your tips are so helpful for anyone considering buying. Love the practical advice!

[@iSucrose]

Stuff is way too pricey these days. When you see Americans packing up and moving to so-called "third world countries" because they can't handle the costs back home, you know things are seriously going south.

[@muazunais2378]

I would stop calling developing countries " 3rd world " when most so called 3rd world countries offer peace, comfort and safety than any developed countries ever do, sure they don't have ur usual star bucks or mc donalds but trust me they do offer better than any of that stuff. Go visit countries like Sri lanka, Indonesia (bali), Malaysia and see the truth for urself

[@TamaraGirodie]

Thank you for this video! I think there is definitely a split in viewpoint of living affordability between older and younger generations, and having this video to refer them to is great! I live in the SF Bay Area, and most of my coworkers either commute from 45+ min one way and live with a roommate, or live much closer but have 3+ roommates, and our pay is by our job standards pretty decent. And yet, we cannot afford to live independently and it truly makes for a demotivating environment, and has me considering a move to another country where cost of living is better regulated.

You got a pretty good deal for a 2br and 2 baths (AND 2 parking) tbh! When I first saw your condo I thought you were around 600-650k

[@andresvidoza]

even tho its still pretty pricey, its actually not bad compared to what the market has to offer. Specially in places like Toronto or Vancouver lol

@@andresvidozaVideo is great tho, love your content!

[@jonathanxtapia]

Location plays a huge factor, where 6 figures can mean more to you. For what you got your condo, you can buy a 3 car garage home in Utah (4000+ sq/ft). I understand this video is about buying in your 20's, but my point I am pointing out is location really matters. To the younger generation, take care of your credit score! Check different cities in your state, some offer USDA loans where no down payment is required for a home if you make less than $110,000 yearly, pretty neat. Interest rates are high, but don't let that stop you from buying if you can, interest rates will drop and you can refinance to get that better interest rate. Thanks for the great video Andres. Go Ferrari haha

[@mllarson]

I used a USDA loan to get a nice house in a small town. It costs more in the long run since no money down, but it's a legit option if you can't (or don't want to) put down a large lump sum as a down payment.

[@Siscast]

remember, you can ONLY refinance in the future if you have equity. If you buy out of your means now, you won't even be able to refinance later.

[@tannerwalls5383]

Loved this video. I’m 22 and study full time along with working full time. I graduate this December and looking at the housing market has been stressing me out. I really really want to buy but the payments look ridiculous.

[@fancyslimoshady]

$500,000k is alot for a condo. Imagine the condo fees ontop of your monthly mortgage.

[@andresvidoza]

yup and I consider myself lucky not living in Toronto or Vancouver cause the prices there are double

[@matheusc929]

I went through a very similar process last December here in Brazil. It was an older unit on a way simpler condo but still, down payment, bank insurance and fees, property transfer tax and notary fees made up a big amount to pay on day 0. It is surely a huge initial wall anyone in their 20s have to overcome. It’s sad how hard it is to own one’s home. And that seems to be worldwide.

[@andresvidoza]

its so crazy... what once seemed so possible has now become very very close to impossible

[@alexh2665]

This is an awsome vid. Question tho, with what you paid in total for your condo do you really feel that it was worth it value wise compared to getting an entire single family home? I don’t live in Montreal so maybe idk but for me, 500k gets you a big single family home here in the east coast in the US, that’s what we paid.

[@andresvidoza]

urg its a tough say to be honest. I really want a house however im not ready to shed the money on a house and also the amount of time it takes to maintain a house... it just depends where you are in your life I guess!

[@yamatocoaching7864]

Yeah, I can't even finish the video. Rates are terribly high. In the 90s, you could buy a condo for 30 to 60k, and monthly payments were low, low, low. Now, no one can afford to buy anything. Even renting an apartment is costly.

In response to “I don’t think older generation realizes how much harder young people have it nowadays…”, You do realize that those people probably experienced both the World War 2 and The Great Depression. While it is true that COL now is significantly higher, there are more opportunities now to earn money that are not available in older generations. Imagine earning money by simply filming and uploading your “life in a day”. Plus, WFH setups being a norm, ease of buying thru e-commerce, etc. I’m not trying to discount the younger generation’s hard work. I just think that it’s ignorant to say (or think) that the older generation had it easy.
