I bought my first house at 27. Then gave it to my ex wife in the divorce a few years later. Rented for 10 years and now have my parents' house.

Technically the first house I owned, I inherited from my parents (only child and they were much older when they had me, I lived there taking care of them until they passed).

My second house was the first one I bought, I bought it when I was 34. That's where I live currently.

I've owned six total (the one I inherited, the one where I live, and four rental properties which I since sold). The next house I buy will be my last, looking for land on which to build.
