so if you're 22 and you own a $30,000 home in bumfuck Wisconsin, then you're automatically a winner?

hookers and blow!

How many 22 year old home owners actually own the home they say they own anyway?

Gathering together 10% down payment and having the other 90% in a 30 year mortgage isn't really "owning" a home.

i'll have one by 22 :Graucho

:1orglaugh

Buying a house or completely owning it 100%?

That golddigging bitch probably wouldn't be able to tell the difference. As long as it impresses her friends :1orglaugh

I don't think it's being lazy, it depends on what's goign on in ya life, but i'm all up for getting more assets.

house is the best investment you can make... i bet you 90% of 22 year olds don't own shit let alone a house

That is debateable

ok, one of the best :Graucho

Not at all. Given the current real estate bubble in some parts of the USA, many people in the middle class (specially those just out of college or grad school) may find themselved hard pressed finding a house they can afford.

I'll agree with that

I bought the place I am living in now here in Toronto when I was 19. :thumbsup

I should have bought a house when I first moved here.. but i thought i would wait and see if i really wanted to stay...

Now you can't get shit for less than $600k

So i guess i either have to make more money or move back to the mainland if i want a house.

if you own your own house (or even flat) in London at 22 then you are either from royal blood or are doing something illegal.

Depends how much the place is.

The people who said they bought their homes in there 20's how much did you buy it for?

Not at all

sounds to me like you dont have a very good taste in women.

:glugglug

Yeah. Owning a house at 22 here, nah...
