YOUR QUESTION

Can we afford a $700,000 home without pausing retirement savings or draining our emergency fund?

LINC’S ANSWERI’d choose 15% down, not 20%. You’d keep $48,000 after closing, or six months of your $8,000 spending. Putting another $35,000 into the house leaves just $13,000 in cash. Keep the all-in housing payment within $4,800 a month to preserve your retirement contributions.
