Home owners, how old were you when you bought your first home?

Wow, a few young home buyers here. At the rate I'm going, if I stay in the Bay Area, I'll be lucky to afford a house by the time I'm 45. I'll be 29 next Tuesday.

Bay Area is fvcking insane 🙁 Even if you save enough for a downpayment, the property tax each year is like a kick in the nuts.

:Q
 
I want mine own house so bad, but I'm only 21 so I guess I don't need to be feeling too bad for not having one yet. 🙂
 
I'm 20 but in an apartment, I moved out 2 years ago. Not expecting to own a house any time soon but never know how things go.
 
1st at 27 (cookie cutter subdivision)
2nd at 31 (custom built to my design and specs on property I'd owned in the country for 5 years)
3rd at 34 (job transfer, bought 80 year old house on a nice lake)
4th and 5th (4th is a 6000 sf 100 year old mission style house)(5th was a rental) at 37

I'm now 41. Currently live in 4th and 5th sold for a profit after a year's lease to a tenant.
 
blah .. been looking for over 6months now in the bayarea, it's been crazy. We've been putting offers every weekend for the last 5 weeks 🙁 We're usually fighting with 10-15 other bidders for the same house, eventually we get out bid. Got countered a few times but never scored. 🙁
