    I agree with that, you have to look at the interest rates, the housing market, the condition of the house and your own abilities to fix things while you’re doing the numbers. But I do think that it is usually in your favor to own.

      And also mobility. Young people move far more often than older people, and it’s a hell of a lot easier to move when your lease is up compared to buying and selling a house.

        I haven’t bought or sold a house in a long time, hasn’t it gotten way easier since there’s such a demand?
