🏡 Is your family home an investment?

For me, 100%.

I didn’t buy my place to flip it. I bought a 20–25 year asset in a mountain town of 30,000 people—just 45 minutes north of Vancouver. Close enough to the city when I need it, but far enough away to wake up on a Saturday, hop on the bike with the boys, and breathe mountain air.

My principal residence is the largest transaction I’ve ever made. That’s significant capital parked, tied up for decades. But it’s more than just a roof—it’s a store of wealth.

✅ It can generate yield if I choose to rent it.
✅ It has utility if I decide to move abroad for a year.
✅ It carries the potential for long-term capital gain.

I don’t look at it with emotion—I see it as an asset with utility, flexibility, and longevity.

So… is your home an investment, or just a place to live?
