If you only have one house - who cares?
If you want to move up the ladder that bigger house you want is proportionately more expensive too - so it costs you more to buy it?
If you are in your final house - well I suppose its of interest to whoever benefits from your will or the council if you need social care.
Only if you intend to downsize or move to a less nice area is it relevant - and most people don't cos they haven't spent 20-25 years saving to buy a place they really like/want just to leave the place.
And of course what about your priced out kids and grandkids - don't they matter to you? Or maybe you read the Express?!!0 -
I already owned my own home outright by 2000 with excellent 6fig career AND inherited big-ish - 3x house value. I have lost a lot setting up business and failing so it's all horses for courses. Who knows what's around the corner.
A house appreciating in value is only tangible if you grapple the gain and move to a cheaper area so it's meaningless on your net worth.0 -

My house earns the difference between the cost of owning and the imputed cost of renting. It's the gift that keeps on giving.0

Op your poll only goes down to nil, i think the value of my house .......(if that is what you mean by, what did it earn) I think it may have earned me a minus figure.Liverpool is one of the wonders of Britain,
What it may grow to in time, I know not what.

Every penny over inflation that your property goes up takes home ownership a penny further away for the young...
Houses for homes not profit.
Let's make this the story on the news and in general election and start fixing our broken housing market for our children.Peace.0
