renting your whole life is fine, the idea of housing as an investment is insane and precisely the reason why it’s as unaffordable as it is.
finding affordable housing in cities here is reasonably easy, mostly just a matter of waiting enough to get priority, because we have renter’s rights and municipal housing companies whose operational goal is specifically to provide housing to the people. We need more of that and less investment housing.
I mean, being a perpetual renter and building 0 equity is suboptimal.
But more importantly, finding affordable housing in most cities is aspiration itself.
