I have 100k saved up and a decent salary at my job yet still can't afford to by a modest house in the suburbs. Everything is so fucked right now with housing. I don't know how much longer I can hold out /biz/. When is the crash you guys keep talking about gonna happen?

Do you really think Bill Gates and the Chinese bought up all these lands and properties just so the price can crash and you can afford it?

>> No.51094820

100k is a great down payment for a house in the burbs. unless you live in some libfag shithole where cucksheds start at 1 million, in which case you should kill yourself immediately

Im in my 30s

There 2 different people in their 30s

1) The people whose parents helped them buy a house 10 years ago

2) The people who have no help and were saving for the last 10 years but got priced out despite saving

It really depends on your parents, basically everyone I know who have "investor mindset" parents, well their parents helped them buy a house 10 years ago, but the people dont have investor-minded parents, well they're shit out of luck.

owning a home is overrated if you're a bachelor. far better to rent and wait out the market. you have no idea how housing markets in specific regions will do. also, having debt is a sign of slavery.

I rent a cozy house and pay less than a mortgage would be and fix the place up so my landlord doesn't raise my rent. I should be paying 4k/month in rent but I pay 2500 because I do my own maintenance. :) I'm moving to the mountains soon with all the money I saved to build an off grid cabin. Fuck everyone, I'm going to hang out with the trees.

I live in Denver, CO. I am renting just outside of downtown now. I want to be on the west side of the city. The houses I am looking to get into were $250k a few years ago. Now these houses start around $750k for something that's rough around the edges. Any house priced less than that is trash not worth buying.

Unless you’re renting a mansion, their mortgage is less than your rent. There’s absolutely zero chance they rent their property for a loss.
