@bad.anthony: 🏠 38 years old. 💰 $100K salary. 🔑 Still renting. Some people think you’re throwing money away. Others think you’re smart for avoiding a 30-year mortgage. But here’s the thing… Owning a home doesn’t automatically mean you’re wealthy. And renting doesn’t automatically mean you’re broke. Would you rather RENT and invest your money or OWN a home and build equity? 👀🍿 Let’s hear it. 👇

I think it depends on the location where you wanna buy a house I definitely wouldn’t recommend it in expensive states like California, but I think for good cities in Texas it would be highly profitable. (Assuming low rate and payment) My mom has a triplex and she is looking to add onto that another two efficiencies. Now the house paying for itself,+ it’s created passive income for her. But not all houses are as profitable as hers because she doesn’t have an HOA and she was able to market it as a Homestead. While still living within city limits so I feel like she got a really good deal. Houses like that in good areas are not as common or are older which means more maintenance.
