        I bought in 93 for the first time. I was 25.

        Subsequent purchases at 33, 44, and 56. I’m probably done unless we leave the area altogether.

        Only non-witches get due process.

          Oh man you were so closed to a nice pattern when you were 55! 33-44-55... at least you were under contract.

          I first bought (condo) at 27, then a single family home at 39. I have no plans on leaving this house, hopefully until I'm in my 80s.

            1995 age 31, then 1999, 2003, and 2022

            I really hope we're done with it, however I suspect the current Mrs. Phibes of scoping out old people's homes just in case.

            I was only joking

                First house in June 1985. I had just turned 29.

                  First of two houses purchased in 1987. I had just turned 25. Second house purchased in 1998. I will probably die here unless the current wave of development around me pushes my home value closer to 1 million. If someone wants to give me a million for this place I would most likely take it, spend around half on a downsize, and pocket the rest.

                    I've had too many houses to remember. Bought my first at age 13, with proceeds from the street crime organization I headed. I had 3 children at the time, and raised them all there.

                    Education is extremely important.

                      Your next house will be in a Salvadoran prison.
