Hey guys! So I'm going to graduate from medical school and am going to start residency in July!
As title suggests, I am looking to buy a house during residency, and was wondering if this is a good idea.
Here's my situation:
-I don't have student loan debt
-I am in an area where average home cost is around 250k-300k (in Arizona)
-I plan to use a physician loan mortgage, probably going to put 5%-10% down depending on price and rate, for a 30y mortgage
-I am staying here for 3 years of residency, and very likely another 3 years somewhere in town for my fellowship training.
So here's my question, do you think this is a good idea? should I aim for a condo or a house? Open to any suggestions! TIA!
