In the Sacramento metropolitan area, workers in only six of 58 professions can easily afford to buy a home with their annual salaries.
At the top of the list of workers with a chance at homeownership are those in the legal professions, including lawyers and judges. These professionals earn an average annual income of $158,165, and can save a down payment for a mortgage in 3.7 years.
These are the findings of a report released in August by Storage Cafe, national real estate listings and analytics company, and a part of Yardi, a software company. The report analyzed 58 professions that are trending, meaning they experienced growth in their number of employees in the last 10 years.
