Saw that Boomers own about 55% of the housing supply despite being a third or less of the population

True, that is part of it. Either way, your tenants are subsidizing your mortgage cost whether it's 20% or 100+% and over time as rents increase their portion of the debt being paid also increases.

And as time goes on your rent will increase at a rate greater than the increase of the owner's associated costs.
Even if there's no cash flow the investor still benefits from loan pay down + appreciation + tax write offs.
My man, real estate is all about leverage. Forget about the property itself. It's just the fact you are controlling a huge asset with very little money of your own.
Even if it doesn't cash flow I'm only paying the difference to have a 6 or 7 figure asset appreciate and as time goes on that rent number creeps up but my loan doesn't change.
It's just math and the math almost always favors investment property over other assets because of the multiple ways it generates money / savings (same thing).
You really only take the L when you buy a primary residence but even then it's usually better than renting even when opportunity costs are considered because you're not going to see those 10+% returns so many have become accustomed to.

If you can't float the costs of ownership then yes there's a risk and you shouldn't be buying in the first place.
That's why all these AirBnB faggots are getting burned and dumping because their entire business model was built on leverage.
Leverage can be a great tool but you need to know what you're doing.
There is a time commitment involved too, so if your time is more valuable or you just can't stand it then don't do it but a lot of problems can be avoided with good due diligence, tenant screening, and location. There's pros and cons like everything, don't focus on just one, compare and figure out what's right for you.

Real estate seems like a trap to me. You never own the property. The state can come and condemn your building or levy fines against you for tax evasion, or even take the house from you in some jurisdictions. Meanwhile you're tied up in a 30y debt obligation that ultimately costs you a huge amount of cash to finance. By the time all is said and done, you're dick deep in a pile of shit that was clad in gold plate. What's worse is, say the local economy dries up: people have to get out of town, houses go on the market, and prices face a substantial drawdown while the market becomes increasingly competitive. And then it becomes a question of how resilient your position at work is, and how resilient the local economy is, or if it can be restructured efficiently.

And that's without factoring in things like acts of god raining down on your roof and destroying it. Burst water pipes, or sewer lines. Shitty neighbors coming in and hurting property values. Poor work done at conception, shitty construction, and butchered renovations. Small property allotments that you can't do practical shit with at a meaningful scale. Zoning laws that prevent you from running a business front, or certain constructions are forbade. These things among hundreds of other caveats that leave a man wanting.

Fuck that. Shit deal.

for your information
in the current market conditions your home equity can go negative, yes this means you will have to pay to get rid of your house
but thats impossible anon, just like negative oil was impossible to up a month ago

the factor you are all forgetting is the tax liability that is attached to a house
housing equity is very difficult to move in a changing regulatory environment and local authorities know this, jacking up real estate taxes is a prefered method for municipalities to straighten their dying books for a few more years
and within the western world almost every local authority is bankrupt, illinois is a good bellweather for this behaviour, it is entirely possible for landtaxes to be jacked up beyond affordability
at this point you can only get rid of your tax liability by selling which would be akin to selling someone your seat in a burning theater, cause you will have to pay your taxes no matter what

the only play with real estate at the moment is leveraging up to the gills and hoping for a high inflation event, but you will have to stay liquid for the duration so its pretty much gambling
better to wait untill the current chaos settles down before getting into a long term asset like housing

A 1989 study published by two well-respected Harvard economists predicted that the aging of the baby-boomer generation would reduce the demand for housing and cause a significant decline in real home prices. The professors concluded, “If the historical pattern [between births and housing demand] continues over the next twenty years, housing prices will fall to levels lower than observed at any time in recent history.” Of course, the opposite has happened.

And then there’s this. In 1971, the economy of Seattle was suffering. Boeing had cut more than 60,000 jobs and the outlook for Seattle’s future was reflected in the words of a famous billboard from the time: “Will the last person leaving Seattle turn out the lights.” Today the city has some of the most expensive real estate in the nation.

Our recommendation: Beware of predictions, especially about the future.

If I was living with parents I would be able to pay off flat/buy within 5 years and I earn barely anything above minimum wage. That's because I was saving almost everything I earned. I don't drink alcohol nor smoke, typical consumer entertainment doesn't interest me and often puts me off because I hate noise. All my expenses were just food, gas so I could drive to work and like once or twice a year game on promotion. It isn't that hard. Sadly my mother and her new husband wanted me to move out, just like kid of that guy had to move because he was making mess everywhere so now instead of saving 80-90% of my wage I'm wasting like 60% of it on rent and bills. I told them that by doing this they're fucking me over by turning mortage in 1 year/flat in 5-6 years into ~15 years to afford initial payment to get the mortage going, not to mention paying it off, and offered to split the bills because it'd be cheaper but they didn't care. On top of that they sold additional properties they had instead of renting them out which I found fucking retarded. West is just very individualistic in comparison to other cultures so it's obvious you're going to lose if you have families who work together and help each other. It's not uncommon to pile up the savings to send someone to the west so they could get a life they could only deam of in their shitholes, then the person sends money back so family could invest in home business and get richer, bring family to the west, they set up family business which doesn't require costly middle men, grandparents who don't have big needs often still send some money to help.
So yeah, it is possible, but sadly less common in west, lot of people get fucked, like me. And I will remain fucked until I either find someone to split the bills or get better paying job. The only "happy" thing for me in this mess is that mother regrets her decision after I almost completely cut the contact with her, and the remaining contact is just out of principle.
