Other than not wanting to deal with yardwork, I don't understand why people will pay $2K a month rent instead of buying.

Because buying would require you to pay 2-3x that per month. I'm one of those people right now. Just waiting it out. Though I'm paying a lot more than $2k per month in rent

Because $2k a month in mortgage might get you a $240k house with today’s mortgage rates. And if you pay that much for rent then there probably aren’t decent homes for $240k where you live

$2k a month is approx $280k. In my area according to zillow that gets you a 1k sf trailer but you still have to lease the land, 7k sf vacant lot, or a van down by the river. So instead we rent a very nice apartment for now.
