Thank you Jesus!!!!! Lol! I'm sick of the out of control greed by the real estate developers and landlords.

[@tylerdurden9748]

if you paid for property tax and property insurance you'd understand the rent price you're being charged.

[@rw7717]

LOL! Did you know Austin doubled property taxes for investment properties. So, yeah, your rent went up.

My family is full of real estate agents, I understand property taxes. Rents have gone up way more than the taxes though. That's an excuse for an ignorant child. The building I live in was paid off by the landlord 20yrs ago. Property taxes are high, $16,000 grand a year average for a duplex. My landlord is nicer than most, yet my rent still covers the taxes and expenses in 6 months. The other six months and other rental side of the property is pure profit. Around $37,000 a year average. They have multiple properties, most making more and myself and the other people who rent are choosing rent over bills, food, doctors, they could lower each sides rent by $200 a month and still be very wealthy, profitable and nobody would be without power for random months

@@lfeb I’m sure no toilets, plumbing, AC units, and other things ever break down. You’re talking about one case, where the property is paid off. I think if you ever experienced the real cost of owning multiple properties you’ll change your opinion.

[@douglas2583]

Yeah well where does the hike in rent truly begin and end? Profiteering is in everyone, sure.. Poor property owners are suffering 😆

[@roxyburton79]

[@batmantomgaming2262]

[@jhdz6988]

Californians making 200k/yr are pushing out local Texans making 40k/yr hopefully they don’t chase out the Texans that had to flee to Arkansas for cheaper rent
