16 Photos That Reminded Me, A Millennial, That Home Ownership Is Pretty Much Out Of The Question

    I don't even have money for a down payment, but if I did, I would NOT spend it on these.

    If you're someone who's looking to buy a home or rent an apartment, then you know it's BAD out there. The average cost of a home in the US is over $400,000 and continues to climb. Rents are hiking up all over with no signs of stopping. It feels like the ability to own property and/or live comfortably is getting more and more impossible.

    Luckily, there are places like Reddit with proof that it isn't all in our heads. If you still don't believe that house hunting is a certified nightmare these days (how?? Are you a billionaire???), take a look at these 17 photos:
