I see in Maryland, Washington, DC and Virginia until I moved back to Buffalo, NY area about eleven years. Buying a house in the Buffalo area was a pleasant surprise when I learned I could buy a house almost three times bigger than the house he owned in Maryland for the same price.

My monthly mortgage (principal and interest $ 800), would be eight dollars less than the monthly taxes and insurance ($ 808) had to pay (for a total payment of $ 1608). This means that after thirty years of paying a mortgage, you still have to pay an amount equal monthly taxes and insurance for the rest of the time I lived in the house. It would have two mortgages for the price of one and that is if the taxes do not rise.
