There are several sites out there that compare

mortgage, borrowing costs, repair costs, property tax, a fund for known maintenance, a fund for repairs that insurance won't cover without penalizing you more, and home resale value
paying stupid rent and putting the difference from that above into the dumbest of minimally-performing stocks.

After 5/10/20 years, we pretend we're gonna cash out from both options and compare cash on hand after each.

There are really few scenarios where the bungalow owner comes out ahead.
