The problem with this analysis is a 50 yr and 30 yr will have different interest rates. You can go ahead and assume a 50 year will be 50 basis points higher.


There’s too many people on here who don’t realize this and also aren’t factoring in things like property taxes and insurance etc. The math just doesn’t make any sense. The same clown on here calling 30 year mortgages a scam is advocating for 50 year mortgages all because it’s Trumps idea

Too many poors on here desperately wanting fed rate cuts and mortgage rates to go down to cover for or hide their failures. 15 year mortgages should be maximum allowed it would immediately solve all the issues people on here are whining and crying about and it wouldn’t make Americans slaves to debt more than they already are which is what a 50 year term does. Same for the 72 and 84 month car loans. It’s fricking stupidity to the nth degree.

No links. More deflection.

Again, I don’t read your posts that aren’t addressed to me. Anyone taking your advice is likely stupid. I have no idea what you are wrong about this time. I don’t argue with fools anyway. My guess is people have already stated how you are wrong based on your downvotes. People clearly see your idiocy and binary thinking. I don’t need to add anything. Have a great Sunday.

You need me to link where you said the issue with a 50yr mortgage is that it will cause more demand and what happens with more demand?

Its in the post where you lied about owning multiple homes

You lie so much you cant even keep up with it. Then you lash out like a female

If you actually owned a property you would be celebrating this

We also have the Boomer demographic problem, which will 100% be realized over the next 50 years. When the boomers start to die and those homes hit the market the prices of RE will not be able to be propped up by government anymore. Policy now to artificially prop up prices to avoid market forces just make that bubble bigger.
So, in your analysis, Boomer deaths will lead to a housing supply surge which will lead to price collapse?

Aside from that being a monocausal prediction in a multivariate system and ignoring countervailing demand, absorption mechanisms, policy adaptation, regional market segmentation, and structural supply shortages, I guess you have a point.

Did you not read the rest of my post?

It's on variable in larger scenario of decades of government-backed policies meant to warp the free market and , more importantly, skew free market forces.

That single variable will overcome the "supply" argument that tries to pretend that our housing inflation and the insane prices (that don't reflect the actual market prices) are a supply issue only. That's why I specifically said that the impact will be so great that the government will not have a bullet big enough to fire at that problem at that time.

Real estate is a bubble built upon a bubble built upon a bubble and this 50-year mortgage is another government-created bubble that will pop. Instead of addressing the actual problem. We are making the ultimate solution worse

Boomers dying off is leading to The Great Wealth Transfer it’s a very real thing estimated trillions of dollars in assets from older generations, primarily Baby Boomers, to younger generations like Gen X, Millennials, and Gen Z will be handed down. Many will inherit paid off homes or cash to buy a new home or both.

Only dummies such as yourself take 30 year mortgages.

The 20 is the way to go. It really is.

No.
It's not the same. 72-84 month loans on depreciating assets are very different than loans at any term on appreciating assets.

Choice in financial instruments has nothing to do with "the poors." In fact, quite the opposite. Assertions to the contrary speak for themselves. E.g., I've had unique financing opportunities at disposal which most here simply wouldn't. Some I've engaged, others I've passed on.

The interest in sticking your nose in others' financial affairs by insisting their choices in financial instruments be limited feels anticapitalistic as hell.

The question is what happens when houses aren't appreciating assets anymore (for a sizeable amount of time, not in perpetuity obviously)

Pretending RE is always appreciating is literally why the 2009 crash occurred.

Yes, but
the Great Wealth Transfer
runs 180° antithetical to SFP's premise.


In some ways, so does this,
Boomers are subsidizing Gen Z and millennial spending habits, ‘Oracle of Wall Street’ says.

Not at all

You're going to have a lot of RE hit the market with a smaller population. The supply is going to increase dramatically

That is a sign of an unhealthy economy and a period of extreme asset inflation.

He should be promoting 50 year treasuries at sub 1% rates to help the deficit and finance long term growth. LOL

The same thing that happens to investors in any down market, moreso for leveraged investors. The ones who cannot ride it out get smacked. Those who can ride it out are largely unaffected. Those on the sideline get a second swing at investing.
