We bought, knowing that for the next few years, we would only be using our place sporadically. And that's fine with us... It already feels like home...

Yes, that something when you return is called maintenance work
Another thing about renting is, you can change your mind from year to year. If you want to go to some other place, you can do that. You can stay 1 year in TV, the next along the coast, the 3rd in the mountains, etc. And if your circumstances make it difficult to travel that year, you can just stay home. If something breaks, or needs maintenance it's the landlords problem, not yours.
Having said all of this, my wife bought a house in TV in 2019
We are very happy with our purchase, so no regrets. We love TV. So yeah, she said there is something about having your own place ............but it's not choice, less maintenance, convenience, or saving money.
