Y'all have been given more data points in this very thread than I care to copy and paste. Y'all still refuse to acknowledge them.

I’m actually in the worst spot

Other millenials my age can’t put down the avocado toast long enough to get a down payment together and the greedy boomers won’t accept my lowballs and think they can take their money to the grave


I worry I’ll never own enough rent houses to be hated by yall

You have been proven wrong multiple times.

You continuing to say wrong things does not make them right.

well i was given the threshold of $200k in houston and provided multiple housing options.

i'd like to tackle financing now. Tell me why people can't get loans so i can solve that problem.

Post one bit of proof that housing is not less affordable today than it was 15 years ago and i'll shut up.


I and posters like me have posted multiple data points on the subject of cost of living, including housing in this thread.



Post mathematical evidence that housing is just as affordable today as it was 10,15,20 years ago.

literally no one said it wasn't. (note, that 15 has changed numbers so many times from 30 to 50 to 15 but i'll let you slide).

but just because it's less affordable than the past doesn't' make it UNaffordable which you and your ilk have stated multiple times with comments like "there's nothing available" and "you can't get a loan even though stuff is available"...

I blame realtors

People are still trying to sell at 2021 rate prices even though we have 2024 rates

Also 12 Mexicans will pay cash for a house and all live in it

not so fast my friend.

The third is on the southside of breas bayou, which is generally speaking more flood-prone and it's on the first floor about .25 miles from the bayou

But that's the point. Y'all have been making the argument that it's not harder. It's not anymore difficult today than y'all had it, we just buy too much avocado toast.

That $190k 500 sqft apt was $90k in 2016.

All of the other homes he listed were ~40% cheaper in that same time period.

No more like abuela watches all the kids while the adults have cash jobs meanwhile everyone in the house gets food stamps and a welfare check

Tbh life is only hard for one group of people in America but you aren’t allowed to say who it is.

15 years ago? You want to compare housing prices to right after the 2008 crash?

Talk about a dishonest argument.
