  What are Jehovah's Witnesses' stance on home ownership?

  what do people usually think of when they buy a house?

  "i will probably live here for a long time" (you're invested with your time), "i will save money by building equity over time".

  (you've invested in yourself financially for the long run) of course, i wouldn't be able to list the numerous reasons why people want to buy a house.

  Hi, I have been following your website for a year now, finally got around to signing up.This post hits close to home so wanted to share my experience.
  

  Back in the early 90s i bought a home that i intended for parent to live in. The JW's criticized me for buying the home, saying how they couldn't believe i would buy a home so close to the time of the end. Almost 30 years later the parent died and I ended up selling the home afterwards and the witnesses criticized me for selling the house. Seems no matter what you do it is never the right thing unless directly benefits the watchtower corporation.
