My mortgage is $1900 a month and I am extremely grateful for that, because it's been that for three years. I chose to buy so that I could have more predictability in my housing costs, and maybe someday I'll move, but then I'll rent it out. All that to say, if you can buying is infinitely better.

only because you got lucky to buy at that interest rates.

Thats like saying it makes sense to buy tesla stock because i bought it at $10

You can refinance your mortgage when interest rates are lower.

you can also win a lottery

At least 10^7 people have refinanced their homes at lower rates, while only 10^5 people have won the lottery. So refinancing is substantially more likely than lottering.

yea an event that happened just once ( 2.5% rate ) is more likely.
