We bought our house not with the expectations that it would increase in value but that it was the LAST home we would ever buy. We did see that the original price, when first bought, and the price we paid were significantly different. We go one helluva deal in that regard. Do houses apprecite like back in the day? NO.... Do they hold their value better than others? Possibly..
This is not a good time for real estate speculation....that's pretty obvious.
Too late in life for us to buy small and think of moving up...we are FROGS and love our "lilypad"
