    It sounds like you might know more than me, so def educate me if you think I’m wrong.

    However I don’t think point D was addressed at all. First time homebuyers might cover closing costs when purchasing the home, but what about selling it? Afaik closing costs as a seller can be expected to be between 6 and 10%.

    Also, when paying a 2k mortgage, you’re not paying yourself 2k depending on interest rate. These days you’re realistically paying yourself 400 while paying the bank 1.6k. Nothing to sneeze at, but just a more accurate portrayal.
