We’ve been keeping our eye on houses in our area for several years. If the right one showed up on the market we would likely try to buy. I know people who have spent their entire careers in this state. Maybe it’s not the most typical approach, but I don’t expect there will be a concentrated 6 month period of “looking for a house” for us.
For a more concrete example, we nearly lost our housing last year on very short notice (<1 month), and so had to secure a new rental. Most rentals require income to be a certain percentage of the rent (often 300%). We would have ended up living in a hotel.
The idea that you should in other circumstances be able to have while choosing to make lest rings as fairly naive and not based in reality to me.
