The cost of everything is absolutely high at the moment. A lot of Young people prefer to rent for a while probably till they stand on their feet is because owning a house in this generation is very expensive. The cost of getting a land and then building materials is worth a fortune. It's quite unfortunate that the standard of living is getting too high but majority of the youths are struggling to just survive on their own
But we still have to achieve that, renting only temporarily while we can afford our own home.
The current high price doesn't mean a home isn't a dream anymore. In fact, I believe that in the future, home ownership will become even more expensive, so it's better to fight or work hard now before prices rise even further.
