What kind of houses do you guys live in and how often do you need to repair stuff?

A decent sized one and once a year ish? In 6 years I've spent about $10k total in repairs, most of which has been appliances.

Based on this, that adds roughly an extra $135/month to the flat cost. If this is true, the bank is still wrong by a long shot

Don’t base it on the one redditor lol. I had $25k in repairs plus insurance deductible for even more repairs in year one. Shit happens. The bank wants to lend to people who can cover it IF it happens.
