The "ownership" isn't what it used to be - you have to pay property taxes, and if you don't you will be kicked out of "your home". In effect you are renting your home from the government.
- throw_away 17y agonot to mention that until you pay off your mortgage, your home belongs to the bank. anecdotally, I know more people who have had to deal with foreclosure than with eviction. so, OP, would you revise your statement to "boring, but secure in ways nobody really cares about, and even then, not really or interesting, but anxious (if you're prone to be anxious about things that rarely happen and even then are more hassle than hardship)."? I'm not having a hard time with this decision. home ownership is great if you need lots of space for your things or your kids, or if you want to impress people. but that's not me. and I don't feel the slightest bit anxious about my choice.
