Antey profit 400-600k. All taxable. now tell me which is more profitable? If I were you I would Sell it before the house gets old. Make equity out of it and buy something new. Newer the better. Don’t stick too long to same house. older it gets the less it is preferred. It might show good value on paper but buyer won’t be interested as much. moreover California level of appreciation doesn’t happen everywhere in vomerica. I guess you are fairly lucky. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Antey profit 400-600k. All taxable. now tell me which is more profitable? sure. if you have a family and want to settle down. but people have different lifestyles. anyway purely based on returns, index funds return almost the same. if you wanna get down to that kind of calculations, then one can talk about investing in specific companies that gave them 10x 15x returns, because they decided to forego having a home. Its all just individual choice yes, the TS is naive and is stating that buying house is stupid. buying house is awesome, if you want to have a house for your family. Its not even about an investment or asset appreciation. Just the feeling that you have your home is good enough. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not really for the buyer. Idhi 99.99% batch ki ardham kadhu. But lighttttt. ikkada replies evi pattinchukovadu... aa migatha 0.01% intellectuals ni chusthu brathikeyi...

Long term investment in stocks will have high trifling growth as well. these two are my suggestions rather than buying a stupid house whether it’s in India or Vomerica. oorike land konte kabzalu chestunnaru anna 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChinnaBhasha Posted May 14, 2021 Report Share Posted May 14, 2021 I agree with ts on some part, investing on house is not a good option... i know people who spend on needless things like interiors, designs etc etc stuff, while paying emis on other hand... only banks and real estate are the ones who benefit out of it. you need a own home at some point, but I would say shouldn't overspend on it, unless you are filthy rich and don't need to bother about money..

ChinnaBhasha Posted May 14, 2021 Report Share Posted May 14, 2021 people who are saying their home value appreciated 5x, 6x might also know it's because of the land and not because of house... that's the point ts trying to convey I believe. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
