    I was gonna say buying a house too. Mortgage payments are 1/3 what my rent was, and rents have doubled since then.

      I’m in the process of buying right now, and my mortgage is similar to my high rent and the overall cost of ownership is higher, but it’ll be worth it just to get off of the uncertainty of ever increasing rent. At this point it feels like now or never with how batshit insane the housing market has become.
