Is it worth buying a house ?
I mean you can live on rent and that gives you flexibility to change locations whenever you want.

Everyone looks for stability at some point in their life. When they have realised they wont move for a long term from that place. Let's say someone feels that in bangalore they are doing great and would like to bring their parents/grow a family since facilities are good, they wouldn't want to move again right,unless there is a dire situation?
But the keyword is stability.
Nowadays many people buy property just as a show off/tax saving thing, but I personally feel this is more of a middle/later aged move.
My father got his own house when I started college, until my school days we kept jumping from one city to another owing his transfers.
So do not give in to the peer pressure of getting a flat, do it when you are absolutely sure that you would want to stay there for most of your time and have your family join you too(spouse/parents).

Is it too late in our lives to jump into a mortgage?

So my fiancée and I are relatively late in terms of finally landing well paying jobs and being able to save money instead of living paycheck to paycheck. We’re both 36 and currently rent a 2 bedroom in NY and have a combined savings of $35,000 which she wants to use as a down payment on a condo. I kinda just wanna continue saving while renting. I also literally just started contributing to my 401K so I’m also late in the game for that too.
