I'm currently looking at buying a 2bdr/2.5bath townhouse in Sunnyvale, CA. It's brand new, in a good neighborhood, and comes with all the bells and whistles (hardwood floors, stainless steel appliances, etc.).
Right now the asking price is $475,000. Similarly equipped townhouses are going for roughly the same amount in the area. At the end of the day, this just seems like an awful lot of money to be pouring into a 2 bdrm townhouse. I can afford it, but am wondering if this is going to be a wise investment. I don't necessarily care about being able to flip the house in a few years and make massive profit, but I'm also not looking to lose money here either when I do want to move out.
I can see myself living there for the next 4-5 years until I get married and have kids.
