ITT, OP isn't aware of the most basic fact that mortgagecells can actually sell their house, make major profit AND still then be in a far better position than him.

Talk about an all time backfire.

Why wouldn't you want to put your money into appreciating assets? Especially in times like these when our appreciating assets keep us safer during hyper inflation.

Why would you want to give your money to someone else never to be seen again (rent) and not build equity (mortgage) that you can cash out on later?

Logic not even once
I don't think he's intelligent enough to realize what a great hedge real estate is inflationary times.

And he's most likely too low income to realize not 'everyone' gets crushed by a mortgage payment. Pay a mortgage. Pay a rent Its the same **** except with the mortgage you retain the money you put in.

No HOA fees and currently looking for a rental in a state we might possibly retire in.
Depending on how much you put down/into the home and the cost of rentin the area, yeah, pretty much. You could basically give the house to someone to take over the mortgage and be in the exact same spot OP's in. Or, if you put money down/have equity sell it for a break even quickly so you don't lose any money.


I have quiet a few friends in the 28-35 age range that have already bought/sold 2-3 houses and have turned a profit on all of them. I think a lot of rentcels think when you sign a 30 year mortgage you're stuck living there for 30 years. Buying/selling houses isn't difficult at all. I also have a cousin that's 40 that has bought/sold 12 homes so far. (Profits or break even on all of them). They started in the 300K home range and are now in the 1M home range.

OP here

1) I own a place too but I have it rented out so I am gaining equity

2) It takes at least several months and a long, drawn out process to sell a home. This involves lawyers, agents on both sides, buyer not dipping out, etc. Most mortgagecucks are under stress to continue working, mentally tied to wagecucking to pay the 30 year mortgage payments stuck on them.

You have a 30 year mortgage that you're stuck with and I bet you sweat bullets every day to keep performing at your job and stay wagecucking
I went with Option C: Paid-off home, no mortgage

-Not good at making friends
-Always an outcast in team/group settings... don’t work well with others basically

Not just personally but professionally as well. Even within family settings too.

I’ve tried switching environments (new friends, new jobs, new cities, new universities) and there’s never a place that I’ve really fit. Mostly just consider myself a lost cause at this point.

Starting to accept I’ll always be out of place no matter what.

I imagine a lot other miscers are like this too

Buying is only worth it if you have children ad want to have something stable and to eventually leave it to them when your gone. If you don't plan or have children then buying is a complete waste of time and energy.

Bull chit, wealthy people move their money where they get the best returns. I know plenty of people who rent inner city appartments but own commercial realestate or businesses for example.

To be fair. Some wealthy people do just rent. But they are so wealthy it doesn't matter.

Home ownership is a fairly important tool in building wealth. The majority of self made millionaires own instead of renting.

LOL @ rentcels, srs.
Rent is a major component of CPI.

Fed increases interest rate to curb CPI, Bank passes it on to mortgage holders, Landlords pass it on to tenants, CPI goes up again.

Repeat the cycle.

In my city currently it's a smarter financial decision to rent than buy because rental rates are way lower than cost of owning for an equivalent property. I'd be paying $1500 a month more if I owned this place than it costs me to rent it, so it's a no brainer for now. That's a 60% difference.

I'm sure over time that will change, and purchase prices are starting to drop like a stone. I'm looking at three years from now when everyone has to renew who overpaid for their properties because they got FOMO and are house poor already it will be a great time to get in. In Canada we have to renew every five years so in about 2025 a lot of people are screwed.

Renting versus buying is pros versus cons. Renting brings flexibility, usually more home for your money and no need to stress about big issues. Buying is developing a good financial asset.

Just lmfao at your point 2. I have no idea what bubble you're living in.

Here's what actually happened in the real world. My parents spoke to a real estate agent to get the house valued.

The real estate agent came, and during the visit mentioned he has several lookers who may be interested.

By the end of the next day they had two offers, and accepted one of them. Didn't even advertise. OK Jeff.

Such stress. Much several months. Crazy long process.

What makes you think I'm "stuck" with it?

I can sell my house faster than you can wait for your 1 month rent to be up.

Then I get money back for doing it.

What am i supposed to be answering??

All I see in this thread is a bunch of but hurt property investors who thought they could get rich quick. Its quite hilarious. And this is coming from someone who bought a family home 2.5 years ago at the beginning of this madness.

Imagine wanting to move to go travel but you're locked into a 6 month lease, meanwhile any homeowner in this thread could sell their house within a week and get a nice fat cheque to bring with them on their travels.

Well, OP...

If renting fits your lifestyle, great. However, the buildings I pay mortgage on will maintain the same monthly payment for the entire span of the loan. I will own each building and only pay property tax (which will also not change much if at all) after it is all said and done. I rent out a portion of each building so I don't really pay anything out of my pocket, though.

Now your rent will go up when your lease is up and eventually will cost more than what a mortgage would be if you bought a house a few years ago. So, maybe you're a wizkid with investing and used the extra money right now to build your wealth, but that's very unlikely.

Anyways, rent is due on the 31st, don't be late and we'll fix your AC next month.
