Very happy for you my man, but not everyone has that possibility. My house was 200K when I bought it over a decade ago, it’s probably ~350K now.
Putting it simply, I couldn’t possibly afford my own house today if I were a first time home buyer, and it’s a very basic house from 1958.
And I’m definitely one of the lucky ones. Many others can’t possibly get on the property ladder at all, and just because I did doesn’t mean I can’t recognize how much harder it is for them.

You would have to move to a cheaper area because you could not afford the one you live in.
It’s what happens when you can’t afford things; you don’t get them.
