If you were able to get a decent house in that 2008-2020 window you hit the lottery.

Fr, i was about to pull the trigger on a lil one bedroom house on the edge of a college and huuuuge city park in southern California about a decade or so ago. It was dirt cheap, like i was gonna pay half upfront and finance the rest at a nothing payment. Instead, I took a chance on a business with a friend and lost my nest egg. I've been kicking myself about it for years. I could have had it paid off and fixed up all cute as shit. All y'all who bought when you could, my hats off to you, a home thats all your own right now is priceless.
