Owning a 236 sq ft unit still better than paying never ending rental, right?

In a property market where both property price and rental is high, a good option may be to buy a unit to ensure some parts of the money we pay every month belongs to us instead of all 100 percent going to the home owner. A good option does not mean everyone would do it because sometimes, when the rental is just not high enough (because there are many desperate condo owners) or that property price is still reachable (so I can wait first lah), then people will rent lah.
