2 incomes, 175k Gross, I work in the creative tech industry my wife is in fitness. My job is based on NYC so I’m paid an NYC salary.

In May 2021 We were able to purchase an off market house in Norwalk 3b/2 ba .4 acre 2100 sq foot (that includes a 600 sq fully finished basement). We had a 5% down payment in cash then had 15k in cash for closing. No competing offers & the house appraised at offer value.

Happy to answer any questions!
