Agree with RU in IM. Percentages are deciptive.

I would say many out there buy houses they can't afford. It's not only the taxes but the costs of running and up keeping the home and keeping up with the neighbors. I don't really know what you get in tenalfy for $1.8 million? I live in a smaller home in Manalapan and still can't believe the costs you don't even think about and fluctuating bills.

I guess it's all relative to your earnings?

Englishtown resident here...don't forget Manalapan's own Robby Andrews runs at 939 tomorrow!

Also the reason why I am price sensitive is because I will basically be buying the house with 20% down and taking on a huge mortgage. The mortgage will take up about 40% of my take-home pay so I am trying to keep other costs down to the extent possible and trying to gauge how much these other costs will go up over time.

Did you contact Greg Ginn?
