Moved out of my parent's home when I got my first "real job" after college into a little "cabin", that had formerly been an office, and had formerly been a garage before that.
The landlord's property also had 2 bigger apartments (duplex) built over an underground (side hill) garage. I moved from the cabin to one of these when I got married.
We lived there 2 years when the property, including the landlord's main house came up for sale.
I went from a tenant to homeowner and landlord of 3 apartments overnight and moved into the main house. (So I moved 3 times after college, but never got very far. Or even off the property. )
Put 10% down payment and paid mortgage off as quick as I could. After 23 years of having the rentals and doing the math, I tell everybody "Oh this place? It was free!!"
