Your House Might Not Be an Asset
Renting vs buying: most people assume the owner always comes out ahead. Follow two siblings for 25 years and the answer gets far more interesting.In this animated thought experiment, two siblings earn the same salary in the same city. One buys. One rents and invests the difference. We follow them for 25 years and count everything: the interest, the repairs, the property taxes, the fees nobody mentions at the open house, and what the renter does with the gap.
You'll see which costs you never get back as an owner or a renter, when buying genuinely wins, when renting does, and why the answer depends less on the house than on what you do with the money left over.
