Have a tenant that has been in the same property for 25 years. It came up for sale about 18 years ago and they would not buy, because they wanted to be able to move at anytime.

Talk about a poor decision.

More opinions than you want to hear about.

Li, as we know, buying a home is (as Joe Biden would say) a big deal.  However, for many first time buyers, it involves about the same or less than they have already committed to pay on their two late model vehicles, and the eventual value of the vehicles is guaranteed to vanish.  In perspective, buying a home should be an easy decision. 

Than, that tenant is a landlord's delight, but I'd venture to say they have a distorted idea of the definition of security.
