I didn't have issues. Saved for about a year, nothing crazy, and asked for a loan. Now I own a nice two-story house about a 15 minute walk from the city center. I don't really get this "buying a home is impossible" -meme, I believed that too before I actually tried and was surprised how easy it was.
How much did you save in that year and what are your monthly costs?
I plugged my numbers into a mortgage calculator while back and I'd have to save like 20% of the total cost to get the monthly payments low enough. I have an okay salary and I'm still not making enough to do that in a year.
I can't remember the exact figure, it was around 10k I had saved up, so roughly a third of what I had made that year. This was during covids lockdown phase, so I didn't really have anything to spend my money on other than a savings account. My monthly loan payment is between 700-800€, I was smart enough to get a fixed interest rate which was ridiculous at the time but a literal moneyprinter now.
You might be interested to know that in the European country where I live this is completely impossible. No bank here will give a loan to a single person with that income and only 10k euro saved.
Yeah reading all the comments by this user a lot of things sound a bit sus.
