I didn’t hear anything that indicated your children will not own a house

By your board name, I see you need to be spoon fed.

Interest rates at 6.6%. Not great, but not killer either.

Babyboy

7/5/22 12:33pm

Not bad compared to what?

Shore10

It's not just interest rates, it's inventory has been bought up by investors

He knows. It's just easier to dismiss the situation.

Interest rates may have been too low but the bigger problem is lack of housing

Much of the built supply now goes directly to rentals.

Some of it does, but again that’s because supply is too low. Whether it’s

Very few homes...let's get some numbers behind how many homes these investors are actually buying and holding.

Plenty of affordable places to live and buy a home right now.

There are new homes for sale in the 300s within an hour of the following cities:

300k at 6.6% interest with gas at $5/gallon? Yes very cheap boomer.

I never said very cheap. I said affordable. A mortgage payment on those type of

So people that have to drive 2 hrs each day is affordable? Ok.

Shore10

yeah, that's proving the point of why our kids won't be able to buy a home.

I didn't say they needed to commute into those cities.

byubyu

7/5/22 1:19pm

Wow, personal attack. That's a great way to make a point!

runnincoug

My kids won't have any problem buying a home. They go out and find solutions.

Wow, you really are bitter today. You're coming on strong when I don't recall

There's a crash coming. People will be able to purchase homes again.

Nashville’s housing market is pretty rough.

Stop making excuses. BYUBYU is a winner. Follow his lead.

Great pay an hour outside of those cities.

There are an estimated 84.29 million single family homes in America. This guy and all his buddies put together

7/5/22 1:10pm

18% of homes just last year were bought by investors. They are "squeezing" out

runnincoug

7/5/22 1:15pm

How many entities make up that 18%? Likely close to tens of thousands. They don't have a monopoly anywhere.

7/5/22 1:40pm

Ok.

Shore10

7/5/22 1:29pm

The vast majority of homes are still being purchased by individuals. 18% is not "setting the market."

7/5/22 1:35pm

Ok. They have no influence on the market.

RE: Ok. They have no influence on the market.

The problem is they tend to concentrate on the starter home market. so ...
