Yes of course buying housing. This is what most households want and what most of them eventually do. Renting is a stepping stone or for people that are mobile, dont want to commit or really can't afford to buy. People who dont own are often subsidized or given public housing so also less relevant.
- TulliusCicero 4y agoMost people in Germany just rent, because renting works fine there, due to renter protections. We could do the same in the US.
- rr808 4y agoCertainly Germany, Switzerland, Austria have unusually low ownership rates right now. I think its more likely that will change rather than anyone copying those countries.
