“The stars will never align, and the traffic lights of life will never all be green at the same time. The universe doesn't conspire against you, but it doesn't go out of its way to line up the pins either. Conditions are never perfect. 'Someday' is a disease that will take your dreams to the grave with you. Pro-and-con lists are just as bad. If it's important to you and you want to do it 'eventually,' just do it and correct course along the way.” - Tim Ferriss

The interest rate you pay is only one input into whether to buy real estate or not. It's not even the most important one in Jason's book. There's a different between building equity and what interest rate you pay. They don't necessarily correlate.
