Renting though is essentially shorting a house on margin. Its more cucked than a mortgage. The only non-cucked way to live is owning in full without a mortgage. Otherwise you are paying for what is an essential you will always need. Once you realize this you understand rent is a debt obligation just like a mortgage, except it goes on forever so its not thought of as a total amount of money like a mortgage. Its less "scary" and easy for simpleton renters to not realize how they are debt slaves.

Yeah, renting really only makes sense if its a shithole in a big building, due to economies of scale. But that means you're a poorfag anyway so it doesn't matter.

Anytime you rent an actually non-shithole, non-poorfag residence, you are paying for everything you would have as an owner except with your landlord's profit margin on top. Just because you rent doesn't mean the government stops collecting taxes, your roof magically fixes itself, your landlord doesn't need insurance, etc. Its all baked into rent.

You can get a house with barely any downpayment these days and <3% interest rate its pretty much free money from the government. There is zero reason not to buy these days other than not understanding math.

>>19920686

Renting is not cheaper, because the only difference is there is a middle man charging a profit on all the costs of living there normally is and lumping into a single monthly payment. You have to pay rent for eternity but its not combined into a big number like a mortgage so rent cucks aren't scared of it. But take your rent and add it up for the next 30 years, and take into account rent increases, and its many multitudes larger than a mortgage.

A fixed mortgage payment is essentially inflated away after a while. That's why a mortgage is much cheaper, you are borrowing a fixed amount of money. Renting is borrowing a house, an asset which ever increases in nominal value, a debt you will never pay off.

>> No.19920791

Avalon Bay definitely makes profit but the margins are very low (e.g.
3000+ multi family housing in NYC). The REITs also successfully suppress individual home owners from renting their homes to cover their mortgage (rent-seeking behavior).

Your best bet as a single biz professional is to
1) Work in a major city to generate the income
2) Rent what you need
3) Invest the rest
4) Optionally practice geographic-arbitrage after clearing 6-750k after tax (invested)

Exactly my point, they make money off renting. I said before renting only makes sense if its a shithole in a megaplex due to economies of scale. But that means you're a poorfag anyway and it doesn't matter.

>2) Rent what you need
>3) Invest the rest

Its so easy to put 5% down on a mortgage and still get an insanely low interest rate, like 3%. Because all mortgages are just sold by dealers to a money loosing, government owned corporation funded by money printing and the taxpayer. I'm not saying its a good system but its free money, and a rigged system for owners. Because guess what the rich people who control the system own a lot of? Real estate.

So your down payment is getting like 20x free leverage from the government, with no maintenance requirements (can't get margin called). Even if your house just went up with inflation you'd absolutely destroy the typical stock market return. And the monthly costs of owning is cheaper than renting, because as I said, the costs are the same, except you remove the landlord and property manager middle men's profit when you own. Plus inflation is on your side when you own, not against you like when you rent. So overtime owning just gets cheaper and cheaper.

Plus renting just sucks ass from a quality of life standpoint as well. But my point is, zero reason to rent unless you don't understand math.

>Yeah they might have a great investment that might keep up with inflation.
Corrected that for you.
Houses are a depreciating asset that require constant maintenance and on average just barely keep up with inflation.
Biz folks would be better off focusing on launching their biz, career, or moving to a different location for better opportunities when presented
ESPECIALLY
when single.. rather than spending all that time and money on working on a house or paying expensive contractors.

But what do I know, I'm rich.
Lol.

You pay for the same maintenance when you rent. Just because you're a rentlet doesn't mean your roof magically fixes itself. You're just charged a lump sum so you don't realize you are paying for the exact same things except also paying for your landlord to sit on his ass retired while you pay for his mortgage, taxes, his boat and car payments too.

Incorrect.
They can only charge what the market will bear (ref rents dropping 10% in San Francisco to accommodate the continued exodus of young folks going to live with their parents)
Look pal. Your house isn't going to make you rich but it will sure screw with your available time, job opportunities, attract gold diggers if single, potential dating ops etc.

And the only trend the market has ever shown is that it is continuously rising. There may be occasional dips like the market accounting for technology changes or bad weather or whatever the fuck, but for 90% of all places in the United States it would take essentially society melting down for the housing market to dip and not recover and then continue the upward trend that all inflation has been making since the day we started recording it.

>> No.19921469

You act like you can't sell a house. And the system is pretty much rigged for owners. You might get a decline after a year or two, but you can't seriously tell me you'd bet on the dollar over real estate on any time frame more than few years. And even if you do buy in one of the rare times it dips, you can still sell and buy an equally depreciated home. Over time you gain it back as long you continuously own, it doesn't have to be the same house in the same location.
