May not be true depending on where OP lives. There are a lot of rent vs buy calculators out there, and home prices are so expensive in some areas that it’s actually better financially to rent instead of own, and to invest the difference in payments. For example that’s the case where I live in San Francisco - investing the difference between rent payments and mortgage payments nets me more in the long run, even considering housing value appreciation.
yup SF bay area. buying a house is only a good idea if your parents are funding the down payment.
List of things you can do if houses are too expensive where you live:
Improve your life by moving to a shithole rural area where houses are cheap?
Better than living in a shithole urban area where the cheapest rent is 2/3rds of your income.
Oh no, such a shithole, no one likes it here that’s why prices are through the damn roof lol
Cities are expensive because the country sucks balls so anyone with two braincells to rub together moves to the city.
Cities are expensive because idiots would rather dump 2/3rd of their income on rent just to hear the neighbors screaming all day and night through the paper thin walls of their apartment.
Stay miserable.
Sounds like you’re the miserable one lol
Have fun driving to the nearest restaurant, which is an Applebee’s
