well actually you can total a house, at least here in Florida and its alomost inpossible to buy home owner insurance just becuase of the hurricanes and flooding. and o also sink holes, they don't cover property so that $85,000 lot (yes a normal size lot is that much here in deltona) is gone, it isn't worth anything. And since yes the price of houses have been going up,when you sell your house you have to pay more for another, so it doesn't matter because its porpertanial (sp? its early lol), you not making money.

Also if you get to the point that you pay off your house, you have to pay $20,000 to $30,000 ayear, just in taxes and such, thats over $2000 a month, So why would you want to pay it off?

also, my car loan is at 6.5% which is pretty low, i also have the money to buy it cash..but theres this little thing called credit that you need to buy a house. My sister in law just bought a house it was $150,000. She paid 105,000 down!!! yes you read that right. And they still would't give her the loan!! she had to have a co-signer....so you need credit

85000 dollars for a House, man you cant even buy a toolshed for 85k dollar here!! Here the total that needs to be payed of every year is about 7-8000 Euro's a year. Things are completly different I guess between our countries, but still the main point remains, dont buy something you cant afford in the first place!
