my wife and i were in a similar situation. we sold a house we owned in colorado a year ago and were thinking about buying a place here in santa monica. the fact is (for us), that we prefer to live near the ocean and 550k doesnt even get you a starter worth buying in this area. we chose to rent in a location we couldn't afford and we love our decision. maybe for you or maybe not, but thats my 2 cents.

I'll just keep saving for now. While the housing market in LA is lower than it has been in the past, perhaps it can get lower in some areas just outside the city.

a 15 year loan does sound nice!
