Why do you think some people invest a huge amount of money in
buying houses?
People certainly have different reasons to buy a property. I believe the most
important one is privacy. You will gain much more independence and freedom
to refurbish the place as you please since you are the owner. Besides, it would
create a pride of ownership. No matter how small or big your house is, it is
yours to renovate or brag about.
Property (n): a building or buildings and the surrounding land
