Buy a house now because the interest rates are so low. If anything, get a starter home if you don't plan on permanent residence. I chose to build one because I didn't like moving and hope to stay there well past 10 years (10 months so far in this new home).

Plan well and manage your finances (risks, debt management, job security, etc.) . I was able to plan out the turbo project while having enough for the down payment on the new house.

The only thing I probably wouldn't be able to finance in the near future is a wedding, but I'm enjoying single life and don't even care about it right now haha.

So far I have seen Z owners always have good house to park their car.
You answered your question in the first 7 words of your post. If you're like most of us Z owners, yes it is silly! I waited until I was 57 to get my first Z or any sports car for that matter. I know you don't like to hear that and hopefully you won't have to wait that long. On the other hand, if you absolutely have money to burn, then go for it. But the fact that you're even pondering the question makes me think you don't. Just keep'n it real!

Cars unless they are basic DD's are Luxuries...Homes are part of an Investment strategy...Stocks, Real estate and other assets...But Cars are mostly fo the Fun and adrenaline...
I just bought a townhouse in South San Jose. It's a smaller unit but in a nice newer area. Has a 2 car garage so my cars and bikes have a home too. My mortgage on the house in Seattle held me back when looking for a house but still got something.

I spent a year looking and making offers.
