How much to spend on retirement house
Retired last year and just sold my single family house and am looking to downsize into my retirement house. My question is how much is too much for my retirement house. I am 58, divorced, no kids and no debt. I have about $1.6 million in savings and retirement accounts. I also receive a 5k per month Federal government pension. Ideally I would like to pay all cash for the house but wonder if its wise to sink 700k in a house. Any thoughts or advice?
Thanks
