    You aren’t working your way into home ownership in many cases unless you also work your way into a different locality as well.

    I bought my small 2x2 condo for around 500k in 2020, it’s now worth ~800k. Housing inflation is out of fucking control.

      I’m moving into a house (renting) soon, and the owner bought it 8 years ago for $185,000. It’s now “worth” over $400,000.

      The only homes in that price range here are an hour away from where I work.
