I mean, it is a house. The upstairs is fully livable. It just so happens to have a massive garage as the lower level. The only problem I see with it is it's outward appearance. It just looks like a big, old garage. I think I'd like one though, just not this layout. I'd get the 5 car layout.

TRUE THAT. My mortgage is only $1000/mo, but the taxes on the property are another $700/mo. Ridiculous.

I don't have nearly as much experience as @Tcoat but I did a long stint as an occupational safety rep in the navy.

I'm thinking its more road noise than catback if that comes into fruition (ringing ears).

Maybe then, I'll start sound deadening the car

40% of my monthly payment will be derived of HOA fee, Taxes, and Insurance amd Interest!

If i knew this in HS I would of started savings then and payoff as much of the house upfront. How little actually goes to paying off the house is disturbing

Our HOA is not that bad ($40 a month) and we didn't have to purchase mortgage insurance because we were able to pay more than 20% in equity this time (the advantage of this being our 4th house purchased.) Otherwise we could be looking at a payment much closer to 2k on a 230k mortgage.

One other thing: Try your best to get city utilities rather than a MUD. The MUD will charge you out the wazoo for services and utilities.

O they do for sure. I do not have a choice with the house I am perusing. Water and waiste is only through them. Gas, electricity is open market.

You would need to spend a pile of time in a car with a mega exhaust to harm your hearing. I doubt the loudest exhaust out there gets even close to 90db in the car. That woofer in the trunk is probably a much greater risk but again you need to look at the time exposure. If road noise is causing a ringing in your ears you need to see a doctor since there is more likely a medical condition behind it.
