>Short term thinking.

there is a place for short term solutions and longterm solution. If you are going an a hollyday and need a diving mask, you wont buy the most expensive one but a cheapo, if you buy a car and have tripple digets IQ youll but used quality, but it seems you simply cant buy used quality house in US due to poor quality.

Building a quality house is such a superior ROI for the builder, user and reseller...like how on Earth can you have "problems with foundations", I havent even heard that term in Europe, if it has foundation problems it means it kapput, needs to be recalled etc. Its like you build a house in a way to keep the tradies employed in constant mainintence of the house?

>So that makes buying used insted of McSlabbing everything ever 40 years a better and more affordable choice.

oh, wait a sec, you CANT BUY A USED MCHOUSE, since the lifespan is barely 50 years, I guess youll have to take a mortage for your house wite boi and pay for that matchbox FOR THE REST OF YOUR LIFE (dont forget the pricey mainintence cost in the meantime also). Good luck getting some ROI when trying to resell it also.
