I know you can buy apartments, but its a joke to me. If you dont own the land its on, thats as worthless as renting.

I can see your take on liking things already done for you. Im someone who likes doing it the hard way and doing things myself. Maybe when im really old then it’d be fine to let others do things. Ive just always preferred to do anything i can myself, and if I really cant, then ill call a pro, like for gas line work. Electrical, I do myself just fine.

Ive heard many many more complaints about apartments and terrible landlords and awful appliances than I have from a homeowner because you can fix shit yourself.

Also, garages can be for a lot more than just car stuff. Workshop, band space, hangout space, etc.
