Homes are incredibly complicated...

- I know people who rent who have had their period end by the owner. The owner plans to "update" the place and rent it for a lot more. Renting prices do go up over time. This sucks if one wants to be in one place long term.

- There aren't enough homes out there. And, in many locations there are not enough people to build them. A lack of skilled trades to do the work. This drives up home prices because of supply/demand.

- I know financial people who say NOT to treat your primary home as an investment. It's something you aren't really going to be able to leverage while your thriving in life.

And so much more...
