We’re all different with different wants and needs. You made what you think is the best decision for you and the rest of us are doing the same. Many of us on this forum have bought and sold several times over. I think those with children are thinking of them whether they are waiting to buy or not. I want stability for our kids, but that doesn’t necessarily mean buying a home now.
I don’t want an apt. at this time in our lives, so we rent a single family home from a stable landlord. I don’t see any difference in our kids than when we owned. I feel financially secure now, but don’t know what the future holds. Saving $80 or $90K (although I think there will be plenty of bigger drops) is a big deal. It’s like burning money to me and missing other opportunities.
You did what works for you and that’s what matters.
