Until you show me what is produced by paying a landlord every month--or being on the street with no housing--I will not buy your line of reasoning, either.

arent you ignoring leverage in your ROI thoughts?

10% downpaymt on a property that rises 20% in value
net is 200% ROI
sure, house keeps pace with inflation, but your ROI equals inflation divided by your equity ownership percentage

after you have paid off the mortgage, ROI equals inflation
not until then though
