Will likely be moving to the city soon and am wondering if there is anything in particular that will increase my chances as I explore housing options. I’ll likely make about 60/70x the rent with no need for a guarantor. Is that something that will set me ahead of the competition?

I am in my early 40's and have about $300K invested and some in cash. I have $70K in credit card debt (no lavish lifestyle, just 2 bouts of unemployment and some major medical expenses, even after insurance).

I live below my means, LCOL city, used car, max my 401K, save my bonuses, etc.

I am going to get a large bonus where after tax, I'll get a couple hundred thousand.

Should I prioritize pay off all credit cards or pay down half/some of the cards and use the rest for a house down payment?
