Same with RE. People told me I will lose my equity when I bought my most expensive house in 2020. Now 2020 is dirt cheap and I made over 500k on that house alone.

I remember when angry mortgage brokers and Realtors would call in and demand people stop "talking down the market and hurting people" and that "Realtors and Mortgages were DA MOST REGULATED BUSINESSES EVA"

And the last comment about best time to buy a house doesn’t make sense either.
Maybe it’s a great time for me to buy a house if I have the cash and want to hold long term. Maybe it doesn’t make sense for Jack Meyer because he is planning on only living in a certain place for 2 years before he moves. it always depends on each individual to make the decision. Just because some people can’t afford a house doesn’t mean there arent other people where money is burning a hole in their pocket.

Wow, I thought I'd never see Big_Pretender utter some truth. You've been saying since the beginning of this thread that everyone should buy a house no matter what. You've done nothing but cheerlead everyone into buying.

Don’t be ashamed of your age.

I'm not going hold your immaturity and lack of experience against you.

When someone tells you this

“I remember when I could go to the store and buy a can of soda for a nickel. Of course minimum wage was $1.60 and a decent salary was $10,000 a year”

A millennial like me is interested in learning when that was. You must be very old to have experience that. I don’t see anything wrong with asking about your age. The fact that you get so offended tells me you might be a woman. Again, not that there is anything wrong with that. She won’t tell….that’s fine…thinking she must be in her late 80’s, early 90’s.

He's not that old man. The oldest boomers are maybe about to turn 80 and not out on treks and sailing boats. Also, you got Reaganed and didn't appear to even know it.

I remember when people called me crazy for buying bitcoin at 4K. Then they said bitcoin will never be at 20k again and they said I must have bought at 20k (which I never did). Now they are all silent. They really thought bitcoin will never be at 20k again. Of course now they would say you must have bought at 67k. Lol

The haters and perma bears move the goal post every year.

Same with RE. People told me I will lose my equity when I bought my most expensive house in 2020. Now 2020 is dirt cheap and I made over 500k on that house alone.

Some people never learn and will hope for this magic RE crash until their last breath.

Ironically, I'm building duplexes.

Another name change?

3 bedroom, 2.5 bath townhomes renting for about $2200 a month in Panama City Beach, FL, see below link:

https://www.zillow.com/homedetails/1751-Annabellas-Dr-Panama-City-Beach-FL-32407/125963181_zpid/

average working class pay is around $16 an hour on the beach ... I noticed 3 different people renting these type of townhomes, so that no more than about 32% of monthly salary goes to rent and utilities (water/sewer, electric, and internet)

This townhome unit was sold about 15% below initial asking price (and average "peak sales price" for this style townhome), and could easily rent for $2700 per month :
