    There’s these things called banks. And many states have first time homebuyers programs that will help with the down payment.

      I basically bought my first (only) house for 0 money down with first time homebuyers stuff. Ya I had to pay mortgage insurance for a while but my mortgage payment is less than what it would be to rent the same house by like, a lot.

        Renter-brain. Kinda like a horse that’s been trained to believe it’s tied to a post so you only gotta drape the reigns over the post and they think they’re trapped.
