Buy something you can afford even if you lose your employment. People are conditioned to believe that we should buy a home for as much as our credit allows these days. Just because you are approved for a couple of hundred thousand doesn't mean you need to spend that much. Buy only what you need. I personally think people are going overboard on homes, making them into idols. In the UK there are a lot of older homes that were well built. Who cares if everything is modern, I like old style myself...not the beer though.
