In some countries owning a home rather than renting one is considered very important. Why might this be the case? Is this a positive or negative development?

In some countries, the ownership of people’s homes is an important matter. In these countries, it is very important to own your own

home

rather than rent it. It might be indifferent to some, but for these people, it matters. Why is that the case? you might wonder. I think it is because your

home

is supposed to be exactly what it sounds like, your

home

. As a human, I think we long after having the stuff to call our own, no matter what it is, but humans will always want to claim ownership.

This

is nothing new and it has been like

this

throughout human

histories

Fix the agreement mistake

history

show examples

, like colonies

for example

, which later once again became. the same country as before led by its inhabitants. People will always want to be the ones to decide what happens to them and when you rent your

home

you cannot even paint it without the owners’ permission. If you as a person are renting an apartment there might be a lot of stressors in your life. A scratched wall can cause you a major headache because the wall was not yours. The bedroom you are currently sleeping in might not be available as long as you hope, things happen in life and maybe the

next

landlord will not want to have you as a tenant. From another perspective, not owning your

home

could be a relief when it comes to your finance. As a renter, you will not have to pay the mortgage, take loans or spend an awful lot of money on buying the property. You would not have to worry about the housing market crashing or a natural disaster destroying your expensive

home

. Bottom line, as a human I feel like we need to have a

home

, and calling it your own can make that more special. I personally would rather own my house, because

then

whatever happens it is on me and no one else.
