Rule of thumb is 3x yearly income - so 285k is at the higher end.

Make sure you have around 3-5% of the value of the house saved for the first year - there's gonna be stuff that comes up, things you will want to change, etc.

after that, 1%-2% of the value of the home for maintenance

that should be on top of your 6 month emergency fund (at least IMO)
