True. Very true. Then again, they'll have that cash saved so they can put 20-30% down or even buy a car right out. lol rates will be up but home prices will be down from years ago.

You figure 5 yrs x $20,000 saved = $100,000 cash in 5 years on no interest accumulation. Just under your pillow.

I say $20,000 because if their mortgage is $2500, and maintenance expenses is $500/mth and they can sacrafice a smaller space for $1400 rent. Then their saving about $1600 a month!
