How the fuck are you supposed to afford a house if you are single? You can't find anything that's not a dump or doesn't need work for less than $300k and then you have to put 20% down which is $60k cash.

fuck this gay country

Stop eating avacado toast and drinking starbucks. Save $15 a day, let's say $4000 a year. With investment growth that easily will get you $69k in 10 years.

I'm assuming you're looking somewhere metropolitan in the USA contiguous.

Posts like this (amongst other more tangible factors) are exactly the reason the prices are this high. Supply and demands...yadda..yadd..

Make more money and move to a major city in the Southeast. I could buy a pretty decent house for under $300k in metro Atlanta.

Canada and the US share similar financial tides, so I was including them too but I wasn't clear, my apologies.

I think Value Contagion has a good deal to do with why housing prices are the way they are. At least accounting for 15-20% of value of these inflated houses.

Wait for the dip
I'm living in a million dollar house that was purchased for 275k in 2009
Really tempted to sell right now, but I can't anticipate when the next dip will occur.
Literally just eat beans and rice, sleep on couches and shower at a gym to save money and prepare for the next (inevitable) economic crisis.

Go FHA, put down 3.5%. You can also get a conventional loan for 5 to 15% down, but you'll still have to pay PMI. You can buy as long as you have some cash... you do have cash anon?

nah what actually happened was the FED (jewish CB) bought mortgage backed securities from banks and other financial institutions for 100 cents on the dollar during the last financial crisis instead of allowing for defaults and write downs. Then they pushed interest rates to zero to artificially subsidize demand for housing. Then all the single family homes that should have been firesaled during MBS write downs were packaged into reits and turned into rentals. Now millenials are a permanent serf class due to jewish financial engineering and boomer indifference.

tldr jews did this

Who was watching the banks when they were handing out NINJA loans and creating derivatives of mass destruction. The government works for the rich and does not create any legislation until a huge calamity occurs. Ultimately, the Fed prevented a great depression by exacerbating wealth inequality and inflation. There would have been a lost generation regardless...
