For this Redditor, they are looking at a scenario where they have a 2.75% mortgage with approximately $500,000 left on the balance. This is equivalent to a $3,400 monthly payment on a house that is currently worth around $850,000. Having bought the house seven years ago for $715,000, this isn't a ton of growth, given what other areas of the country have done. This fact aside, the family has no other debt and has around $1 million sitting in retirement and non-retirement accounts.
