    i mean you do realize that owning housing comes with maintenance costs, right? why would i spend money i probably don’t actually have to buy a house when an apartment would have about the same rent as the maintenance costs (and the ability to just move if the apartment is flooded or whatever)?

      Home maintenance sucks, but its not that expensive. Certainty basics are on YT. If it were a real challenge then apartments wouldn’t exist either. How often does your building need a new roof?
