My youngest bought his first home at the age of 25 - a 3500 sqft, 5bdrm, 4.5 baths. Sold it last year at the age of 31 and rolled the $175k profit into another, just in a better location. 3000 sqft, 4bdrm, 2.5 baths, unfinished walkout basement. Basement is completely finished now so another bdrm and full bath, plus a 25x30 family room. All while the squid was eating poptarts and hotpockets at mommy and daddys house while complaining about cost of housing.
