    $2000/mo in the midwest would rent a house, if you’re just going to work remote anyway.

          There are small towns with reasonable internet providers that still have houses for under $100k, sometimes well under, so yes, that’s possible. Not necessarily towns in the middle of nowhere, either.

          Idk what APR our mortgage is, because it’s actually our father in law who got it, but ours is $550/month in the Midwest.

          Property taxes keep going up each year though. We’re paying a few thousand a year now.
