Notes -
I felt this way around 10 years ago. I bought a condo thinking I'd lose money on it. I sold it a few years later for a massive profit with shockingly little tax liability.
Then I bought another place and sold it for another huge financial windfall. Now I'm in another place with enormous unrealized gains that someday I'll sell with much less tax owed than you'd think.
Past performance is not necessarily an indication of future success. But I had your mindset long ago and good thing the woman in my life demanded we buy a place.
We keep importing more people. We keep not building nearly enough to house said people in and around major metro areas. I'd say look at Canada for a glimpse of America's future. Housing prices ain't coming down, except for minor short term crashes here and there that hardly slow down the relentless trend upwards.
