Do you own your house or rent?

Additional Details
I think the question is clear as it reads.

I have never owned a house. I have always rented and that is going on 17 years. While some may say I have thrown away money, with the recent housing crisis I may actually be ahead by not losing any value in a house. Also, renting enables me to be more mobile for work, etc. I also am not responsible for much of the maintenance if something goes wrong. I think owning a house is a big responsibility that I do not want to spend the time on. That is a personal value trait as I would rather work or spend time with family than paint shutters or mow the lawn.

OWN MY HOUSE FREE AND CLEAR.

rent.. would love to own, though

Rent

Owning a house is not renting by any means. Yes you make like payments but at the end you own it. You have something tangible besides rent receipts. That's one way to have something later in life and it's as good as $ in the bank.

I'm one of the lucky ones and own my house out right, no mortgage at all.

Own. Besides being a tax write-off, it's mine to do what I want.

I own. Mortgage too high, but manageable.

Why do people ask these questions?


Jennifer S
By "own" do you mean own it outright? Cuz, most people have a mortgage which is really just renting the house from the bank.
