<prompt> Human: I recently graduated this last semester with a degree in computer engineering and I have been wanting to move out of my mothers house for half a year now. I already have a job lined up with a salary of 65kyr and I have no student debts. I also have about 10k already in savings. I would like to get out as soon as I can, but I understand that saving up for a 20 down payment would be wiser. I also plan on having a friend or two move in and pay rent, but I realize that I need to be able to cover the cost entirely by myself and not rely on them. Is it a risk to buy a house so early on? What price range should I be looking for?  <response>: It doesnt sound like you are in any position to be buying a house right now. You want to put 20 down and still have 6 months expenses in the bank.
