Buying a home is not a "no brainer" investment strategy.

* It takes 5-7 years to break even on the transaction costs

* You might not have enough equity (or liquid funds) to sell if you need to move for a better/more preferred job

* There is no guarantee real estate will continue to appreciate at the same rate or ahead of inflation in the future
