> Instead of building generational wealth through homeownership, Lowman has been thwarted at every turn by out-of-state investors

Can someone explain to me how home ownership brings generational wealth?

I bought a 4br house last year. My monthly costs are $5k. Renting a comparable home is about $3k/mo.

The people before me 3x their money over 20 years, but they also did 2 renovations, including adding extra rooms.

Where is this generational wealth I’m supposedly building by paying $2k extra per mo than if I rented?
