Youre luckier than you know.

Thank god I was able to. Was sick of paying for someone else's investment.

Mortgage is just rent with another name (I know it's not quite that simple, but it feels that way sometimes)

When do you pay off your rent? When you die.

Annoyingly house prices decided to surge right when I got a job that would have allowed me to afford one (pre-surge).

Unless I move out to the middle of nowhere, there's not many options for me that don't have an HOA of some kind. Wish I could avoid them, but unfortunately too ubiquitous in the states.

and the HOA.
Is it a requirement in the US to join the HOA?

In many neighborhoods; yes.

If you buy a home in which an HOA is already established, then yes, it's required. And good luck finding a neighborhood where one isn't already established. If you get a small enough town or cheap enough neighborhood, maybe.

True, also best to not pay off your mortgage. It is a line of credit if worth more than you owe. Once you pay it off that credit line is gone.

Most people never do pay off their house.

It's cool right up to the day something breaks and you realize that you are the landlord now.

And my axe?
Die Axt im Haus erspart den Zimmermann. - The axe at home lets you skip the carpenter.
