The questioners are in their mid to late 20s and, as far as known, without children. My personal advice (from a slightly older perspective) would be to set goals and prioritize them (the latter is very important):
- Own house with everything that goes with it --- Yes/No
- Children, and if so, how many --- Yes/No
- Professional career --- Yes/No
(Career in the sense of career, not as this term is used in an inflated way today...).
And then you organize your life accordingly. For example, if the house is set as priority 1, then from the 5700 euros net, 2500 to 3000 euros must be saved (savings account, fixed-term deposit ladder). If the career is priority 1, I see owning real estate more as a disadvantage. Well, and if children are desired, then I would have them first and then find the suitable house a bit later.
PS: The list of goals can of course be supplemented or changed arbitrarily.
