Default Bathroom Exhaust

I just replaced mine from a 50 cfm to 130 cfm vented it to the soffit where
there was a vent, however before I did this I started to notice roofs in the
neighborhood looking for roof vents, can't say that I seen any. Thats not
saying that the soffit is the best.If the roof vent is best, there not that
expensive, why are there not more of them out there.

When I re-roof I'll look where mine is vented to see if there is any mold or
rot.

I was wondering if someone could enlighten me. In all that I've read about
bathroom exhausts, most of the time it talks about using the soffit to
exhaust the vapour.

However, I talked to a friend and he said to avoid that, because it builds
moisture under the endge of the roof. I'd be better off with a roof vent.

Could someone please give me some feedback on this?

TIA
