It becomes a bad strategy after you have/make enough money to support your family’s desired lifestyle and feel financially secure - even if you lose your job or market takes a downturn.
Once that happens, I would begin to optimize for other factors (Joy at Work, time with family & friends, flexibility, etc.)

Any downside to buying a 1bed 170k starter house instead of paying 1.5k in rent for a couple of years? Living with parents and thinking of getting a new place post covid.

I'm able to buy the house all cash or at least 50% down (credit is low) and assuming closing costs are not that big a deal at this price point. If my math is correct then buying comes out to be better in this situation but I've never owned any RE before so wondering what else I might be missing.
