My parents were still renting when I came along, and the first house they ever bought is the one they live in now (we moved there when I was 6), so there are a few for me to choose from!! There is one house though, the last one we lived in before moving up here from Bundaberg, which I still count as my 'home' town - and yes, I would definitely consider buying that same house (my grandfather built it and my parents rented it from my grandparents, then it remained a private rental until my pop got sick and it was sold to help with the bills of going through chemo), I was only a little girl and we only lived there a couple of years but I have very vivid, fond memories of that house, and it's in a good, quiet area close to the CBD (lol if you could call Bourbong St the 'CBD'), in a decent neighbourhood. It's a very small house though, so that would be a worry, but relatively modern(ish lol, we're talking about 15 years ago) and suited our young family fine when my brother and I were kids. I could see myself raising my own kids there.

The house my parents live in now, that I spent the vast majority of my childhood in... no. Probably not. It's too much 'my parents'' house, kwim? The majority of my childhood was spent here, but my fondest memories involve Bundy so I'd love to buy there, rather than here (plus, housing prices are grossly inflated here because of the industry, so it would really be a waste of money to buy here when we could get the same kind of house for $100k cheaper elsewhere).
