No. It means the starter home you could have bought for $150-200k 3 years ago is now $275k.
I wonder why we aren't building more flats and townhomes to market towards first time homebuyers in smaller/mid sized markets. It seems like single family is all they build now.

building a shitpile of townhouses in Houston, problem is a large portion of them are cheaply built

Townhouses are probably going to come with association fees that tack on another $300/month anyway.

Zoning is the issue in most areas.

Well here's your validation Millenials. Yes, you have had it so much worse than us Gen Xers that tend to keep our mouths shut and deal with it.
You graduated into an even better economy than boomers did, you whiny titbaby.

This many millennials didn't just crawl out of their parent's basement with half a mil to dump on a new house. This thing is being driven and it's going to crash...which has a lot in common with enough other economic factors moving in the same direction that it can't help but feel intentional.
Yeah. Blackrock buys whole neighborhoods before they even hit market.

The tiny house market may start to pick up.

That's my point. I saw we give the Millennials a sort of welfare check. Maybe then they will be ok?
A UBI for Millenials. Push for it in the 2022 midterms!

If materials prices fall, anybody who has a little construction know-how is set up well.
I'd build a metal barn a few miles out of town and frame in a condo inside of it.

Have you looked at prices in South Baton Rouge? So trendy.

The next time you say something in this thread that isn’t retarded will be the first time.

We also graduated into a tech crash, 9/11, gas hikes, Gulf War(s), housing crash and whatever has occurred since 2008. We've had to be nimble just as much as anyone. Born in 71.

Damn Millenial bro. That hurts my feelings.
I'm sympathetic to the plight of Millenials and want to supplement your low wages.

You outlined why I think there's a gulf between younger millennials and older ones - particularly when it comes to work ethic, investment practices, and politics.

Most of you had at least a few good years working in a very strong economy before dotcom.
If you were born in the mid-80's you graduated high school and/or college into a worse recession, higher peak unemployment, and a higher GDP loss than any Gen x'er or boomer ever did.

Honestly they need to build more units that younger people can afford. Otherwise they are going to be screwed out of the housing market for a long time.

I imagine part of the fear there is that in a few years those cheap townhouses will stay vacant.

Most people my age already had to reinvent themselves at least once. Hopefully this next recession isn't too deep. I'm too old to learn new tricks now.

Foreclosures will come at some point. Even with low interest rates if a recession hits and people lose their jobs, many don’t have the resources to last long because they over extended in their house.
I am waiting for that worm to turn. Foreclosure or deals to get them out of the investment asap.
