I know I’m supposed to want it to keep going up as a wealth generator or whatever.

But like… I wouldn’t be able to afford the monthly payments if I bought my house right now and it’s scary. Also none of my friends are buying homes, none of them are even renting full places. Just like renting rooms.

So what are your feelings home owners of lemmy?

    Houses are not wealth generating. They are a long term investment. So long that the value of the dollar declines so much that it makes you think that your wealth has increased. At best, buying a house is a hedge against inflation.

    Buy a house when you feel like its a good decision for you and your family. Until that day just save your money and stack sats.
