recommends
Used for: Buying a home within your income
Praised: Considered healthy debt when reasonable relative to income
vs: Contrasted with credit card debt, 7-10 year car payments and student loans
"If there is a quote-unquote healthy debt, it's the 30-year fixed-rate mortgage that's reasonable within your income. And that's kind of what's been missing in the puzzle."
