Every penny you put into a house is like a savings account that doesn’t actually count against you. You get done with that loan, and the worth of that house is yours.

How should I reconcile this with the statement "you should see housing as necessities rather than investments"?

You shouldn't. Because I didn't state that ever.

Houses are investments in YOUR future.
