If I bought the average plain Jane $150k house with 20% down at today rates, I’d still be paying more $ a month in interest alone - not to mention maintenance, taxes, insurance, and what I could’ve made by investing my 20% down in a high yield savings acct at 5%.

    Bought a home in 2006 with 20% down. Had a life changing event in 2011 but couldn’t sell because the home was underwater. Continued making the mortgage payments through spring of 2014 and even then it was STILL underwater. Ultimately we short sale the property and walked away with a debt of 25k that they mandated we pay or the short sale would not be approved. Fast forward today and we still don’t own a home. We can afford to but the bite is still healing It was a HUGE financial hit after all the figures were totaled and we did it all correct (bought with 20% down and within our means but the homes were so over valued the only people who made money were agents and banks)

    People are just desperately stashing the quickly depreciating $$ into any asset that won't devaluate as fast as paper money/bank accounts. This relatively "safe" asset is land and real estate. Of course it may depreciate in the short term (due to bubble effect, etc.), however, in the long run the RE is much safer than other investments (including precious metals) especially because you can a) live in your investment b) rent it out. So blame the money printing for the home buying frenzy. US government is robbing us blind by printing trillions of dollars and thus lowering the real purchasing power of the US population.

    I understand - when houses went to $250k in San Diego I thought "it can't go any higher". It is a tough call because houses should not be at these levels. It's the side effect of trillions of money printing. I just wouldn't buy if you end up being house poor. The maintenance can be tough, for me water heater, HVAC, W/D, tree's etc. is expensive. But I'm glad I bought when I did.

      Buying a house is not bad or good. It's just a simple numbers issue. If it make sense for your economy then it's all good if it doesn't make sense then it's not the end of the world. Buying a house is not an investment, buying a house should be about, I can afford it and I want a place to build memories and set it up how I like it. But how not buying is not missing on any good investment or the opportunity to save money. Homeownership is as a general rule more expensive than renting on top of the cost of the 30 years mortgage which is usually more than double the value of the house you're buying

      And from 2007-2010, 20% of people either lost their income partially or lost their job completely. So that's the danger in buying at the peak before we go into a recession with doubled unemployment. Weigh your odds. You bought in 2005, narrowly escaped losing your home from 08-10 and it took 14 years just to watch your home get back to the value you got it for.

We didnt get our first home intil we were in our 30s. We lived in Florida for 25 yrs. But moved back to midwest. It would be way to expensive for us now. We sold our second home in 2006.

    Michael, looks like these homes are owned by the super rich and in some cases have more money than brains. They are just parking their money . Eventually, the property taxes will be unsustainable. In Marin County, California, we are beginning to see owners requesting reevaluation of their property taxes. I believe we are on verge of property taxes which will crash when people can’t keep up with excessive property tax bills. Bottom line, these excessive property taxes are simple unsustainable. California just reported a hugh deficit. Governor Newsom is in deep trouble. Prior to his re-election, California had a hugh surplus but after he was re-elected, the surplus turned into a hugh deficit. He is pushing reparations but he will hopefully back down due no money to fund it. We just had three bank failures, Silicon Valley Bank, First Republic Bank, and Symphony Bank. All three were recently bought out by larger banks. San Francisco which was once shinning city is now an arm pit. Drugs,crime, vacancies, boarded up retail shops, rent control, etc have taken its place. The leadership stinks ! All under Democratic leadership. I suspect it will be decades before things turn around. Thank you Nancy Pelosi and Governor Newsom.

      I live in north Scottsdale. Recent rental data shows rents have fallen 9% YoY. My rent is significantly lower than the price to purchase - plus purchasing requires a big down payment. Saving money every month is security for me. Be patient. Home prices will come down hard as the economy fails - just like the last housing bubble!

    What people fail to realize too is the average appreciation over 30 years vs the interest paid over 30 years + maintenance/repairs. This is when you see the real net value of a house. If all you ever do is pay the minimum and you signed for 30 years, odds are, you are dumping most or all of your equity gains into interest and repairs over 30 years and I’m not even factoring in taxes.
    The only real way for it to be an asset is to go in big from the get go or put at least 1.5x the minimum every month.
    I have already compared average rent increases over a span of 30 years vs equity gain over 30 years minus 30 years of interest payments, maintenance, and taxes. You don’t really win in the end if you dont have a big down payment or put way way more than the monthly minimum.

I got our teen in a charter school in Naples and we could see ourselves on the beach enjoying the sunsets …. Then … lol my daughter said mom I don’t think we should go I had a bad dream ! We need to stay don’t rent that place in Florida … I want to stay in my MS here … she was so excited to move to Naples ! I said to my husband homes are soooo cheap in Fl we were going to rent in Naples for a year or two then buy….. we stayed … Covid hit… the place we were going to rent went from 1900 to 4000 literally overnight lol the cheap homes for 380k skyrocketed to 650! We would have been stuck … then when I researched hospitals there that scared me lol they can’t handle the population and the health care unlike here chop and University of penn is awful. Then the hurricane hit … insurance sky rocketed ! So we are waiting to buy in this area when rates go down some and now have saved over 20 percent to put down and paid off all debt !

The Fed has created a monster RE market.

    Stop there!!! My daughter and her Engaged Boyfriend are NOT ready to buy a home.
    He's a Doctor and she's a dental hygienist, they are waiting to buy a home , they might in the
    next 2 or 3 years. For now, they will rent and where they are moving too , it's not their forever resident.
    *Who in their right mind would want to spend $200K a year for taxes, that's crazy* .

    The real tragedy is how is $206,000/yr property taxes normal I don't care how much the house is "worth". Do they get extra services from the city?

    Hey Michael - I’ve watched your channel for a while now but recently stopped because I settled on my house on 2/1 in Bradenton Florida - Guy wanted $380K and I offered $340K and he laughed. I let it sit and wait - came back and offered $350K and he sold it to me. I got lucky because I still, to this day, cannot find a 4 bedroom / 2 bath with inground pool / lanai and 2 car garage at that price 15 mins from the beach? All over 400K and some are still horrible!!! Much luck to you all - you just have to strike when the time is right for you. PS I saved my butt off for the right to live how I want!!! ❤❤❤

    A family member asked my spouse why don't we move, my spouse said, why to buy a home , that cost double
    the amount and end up having expensive property taxes.
    You will spend at least $400K ( for the same size of home ) . We will stay here.
    Neighbor sold her home for $450K and went across town to buy a home for $600K . Beauiful Sunset !!!

    Michael your Grandparents are adorable. You have the same lovely thick hair like your Grandma🧓👍😍. It was very interesting to learn about living in Florida😮. It seems you have a great family support around you. There is always hidden increasing costs in this world. Cost of living has increased here in Devon to. We have just retired to our south coast of England and loving it. Everyday we are so happy and blessed we are still on this wonderful earth. Take care. sending love from Rosie O.

    I have told a lot of my friends to watch your videos; having been in the real estate business (owner, rental properties owner, appraiser, and flipper) I respect your input. You do have homestead in Miami, right. Just cannot imagine to paying that much in taxes or in rent.

      The homestead is a huge savings! $50k. What other state does this? No income tax. It's QUALITY of life. You can't even dream of living in CA like you can live in FL just steps from the beach. Only the very rich can do that in CA. If you're established in FL, you're set. Moving here? Not so much. And don't get me started on our amazing governor! ❤

    Hi 👋🏼 Michael 😊
    Regarding your intro ;
    That’s a very sad situation for first time home buyer’s 😢.
    They will be locked in for
    7-10 years before they will see any kind of gains (equity) from their properties.
    We can try to WAKE The World 🌎, But there will always be buyers out there for one reason or another.
    Enjoy your Evening and God Bless,Carlos ✝️🙏❤️😊❗️

    Hard to tell what is driving the housing market anymore... people making money in stock market, etc. or investors or what? I actually thought that the higher interest rates would make a difference, not seeing that at least in FL and other areas of the Country. I stopped guessing, just watch for the knowing now.

    I have paid $40,680 in rent over the last 3 years. I would of rather bought a home, even at a higher price, than give that much money to a landlord.

    • @FamousWolfe
      @FamousWolfe Před rokem +1

      Okay, so you're paying roughly $1,130 a month on rent on average. Assuming you're spending about 30-40% of your income on housing, then you must have a monthly income of around $3,000 per month. Even factoring in other bills plus groceries, you should theoretically be able to save a decent chunk of that money on a downpayment towards a house. Yeah it'll take you several years, but if you utilize a high yield savings account, brokerage account, hell even CDs, you can grow that money while you build it up.

    • @MichaelBordenaro
      @MichaelBordenaro  Před rokem +2

      Just keep in mind you're likely going to be spending a lot more than that when it comes to owning the house with all the extra expenses that come along with it

    • @MikhailFromUSA
      @MikhailFromUSA Před rokem +1

      You would spent almost the same on interest payment. If you don’t have cash you would not save much

    • @inwiththenew

      @blinovskovm good point. Plus even if you have a mortgage, you have to have contingencies for emergency repairs. Sometimes renting shelters you from misc expenses.
