      Do you have a million under the mattress? Because if you need a mortgage, it’s even worse now than in the past, despite the slightly lower prices.

      Nope, you can’t. Unless you inherit some substantial sum, choose the very cheapest place or you aren’t in the top 5-10% of earners with a wife/spouse also earning equally good and with no children

        Im pretty confident about that.

        Me and my wife earn quiet a lot, we have 150K+ in savings but it still was not the right one there on the market and right now we are not yet ready to make any compromises.
