Just remember that your house is NOT an investment. there is no revenue generated by it and there are only expenses associated with it. a car is also not an investment, just future junk. And in the villages, houses can come close to future junk with no wills/trusts, etc

Houses do produce income. Remember some of us have own rental properties. All part of the retirement income portfolio.
