Big Wedding vs. House: New Poll Reveals What Newlyweds Want

TWL_2015_june_blog3Just in time for wedding season, Trulia.com has released the results of a new poll that reveals most Americans would rather buy a house than splurge on a nice wedding. The poll asked men and women nationwide how they would spend a sizeable engagement gift of $30,000 or more. Nearly 70 percent said they would use the money as a down payment on a home. Only 6.1 percent said they would splurge on a dream wedding. The survey also revealed what people think is the perfect size for a first home. Fifty-one percent said a three-bedroom home is ideal for a newlywed couple while 26.5 percent said a four-bedroom home was best.
