Not saying it could never happen, just that it has not happened over any long term period in my lifetime, my parent's lifetime, or my grandparent's lifetime living in SoCal.

Like I’ve seen in my market and it’s likely the same on others, there are just multiple generations and/or multiple families living in one home and as a whole able to qualify and pay the high mortgages (parents with kids moved back home, grandparents living with kids, roommates, a room or garage converted to rentable studios, etc).

Reaching out to my grandparents so they could take an heloc on their house so I can start because I do not want to pass on real estate.

I have a projector at home and anytime the grandparents, friends, etc come over I have to explain how to use it.

Kind of like for me my grandparents living through the great depression borrowing money and paying interest was against their religion.

Looking at current demographic in CA, many cities in this state are actually being saved from further 'disintegration' is because their parent or grandparents bought properties that they can use.

I'm not trying to scam my grandparents.

My grandparents were helping me for a while and then dumped everything on me due to family issues.

Grandparents never finished highschool.

I have No family any longer since my mother passed away in 2000, So I am actually looking to either relocate to the Florida area on the Gulf side to be close to their Paternal grandparents and few aunts and cousins..
