I did, yes it is nice, I don't know if it's even possible for most folks. The only way to get a house in my case was to buy it with family and split it (in our case it was one big old house that'd been converted to a duplex nearly a century ago, so while it's one building it's well set up for two families to live separately). The benefits they talk about are real, but I don't know how realistic this is as a recommendation. I suspect few folks will find themselves not only able to buy housing (or a portion of housing), but also able to do so with folks whom they trust enough to make such a big commitment. I'm curious what other folks think about such situations and recommendations though. Is it a realistic recommendation?
