@@penguingobrrbrr353 I just bought one for cash and the other 2 that I have are leveraged 50% . Renting is a short term solution. All my friends say it’s cheaper to rent because they can’t afford to buy. That doesn’t mean it’s cheaper to rent it just means they are choosing to live above their means to justify living in an expensive town or neighborhood. That’s my argument because I’m an owner and they are renting and they pay 3000$ a month from their job and I pay $0 from my job and I own 5 houses . They’ve spent $500,000 in rent already and on their way to 750,000$ . They still say renting is better than owning. Soon they will have spent $1 million in rent and if a month goes by and something goes wrong they can get evicted and I will be a millionaire without the chance of eviction because I can’t be evicted from property I own. Simply because I picked ownership over renting in CA.

Huge mistake at 8:34 No, you can thank housing prices being in an unsustainable bubble. PRICE is just as if not more important than interest rates! Idk why no one seems to grasp that the underlying sticker price of a house matters just as much if not significantly more than your monthly payments. If all you do is look at monthly payments you’re setting yourself up for failure.

Personal financial expert here. He kinda glossed over something VERY important. That 50% living from the 50/30/20 rule...that's everything required to live AND work. This includes rent/mortgage, everything required to rent (electric, water, etc.), food, all medical costs, all transportation to and from work (the TCO of a car is INSANE). That 30% is just too high because, simple math tells you, that just leaves 20% to cover everything except rent/mortgage. Seriously, do ANY of you think it will? No, of course not. I honestly think it's better to just divide your income into quarters and make rent/mortgage 25% MAX. But depending on your medical needs (#1 bankruptcy is medical) and transportation costs (cars are EXPENSIVE), don't be afraid to drop it even lower. The truth is, no one, and I do mean no one, in the service sector can afford rent/mortgage without multiple roommates. Period. And you certainly can't afford kids.

Agreed. There’s a very simple conclusion to draw from all this. Only the wealthy can afford homes in a moderate/high interest environment. The ONLY time the middle class can get in is when interest rates are closer to the avg inflation rate of about 2-3%. Most can afford a 300k home, but not if the institution charges 400k in interest over the life of the loan and most can’t afford to overpay enough to put a dent in the interest. The best thing you can do is saving and invest for years and years until mortgage rates are closer to maybe 4%. With national home appreciation at about 3.5%, buying a house to live in isn’t a great investment anymore. Investing over years may give the typical American the ability to catch up to home prices as stocks appreciate far beyond real estate, then pull the trigger when interest rates are low again. Sadly, the typical American doesn’t even have a taxable brokerage acct in the first place or know how to use it.

Great video. Haven't seen the logic of buying vs renting broken down so well. So important to understand in today's economy. I don't live in such an expensive area, so the difference between buying and renting isn't so great. It is cheaper to rent, but because I have two large dogs often dealing with breed restrictions makes it more economical and frankly easier to just buy. So as you stated, it depends on your needs.

When you calculate to rent or to own you need to make sure you are compairing apples to apples and not apples to oranges. Renting a 900 square foot two bedroom one bath apartment with a carport a thousand feet away from your front door is not the same as owning a 2,000 square foot three bedroom two bath house with a two car attached garage. I have seen it thousands of times from pro renters comparing a $3,000 mortgaged house to a $1,200 a month apartment. Where the house and apartment are as described above.

You forget to mention that mortgages (along with student loans) are the only two major types of debt that you can get which the gov subsidizes. 20% down means you are borrowing 80% on an investment. If you try doing that in the stock market the best you can borrow at is probably 50% and the interest rate is a lot higher.

Thanks for offering various perspectives on assessing home affordability. Very useful to think through these things before, as you point out, making what will likely be the biggest expense/investment most of us will make in our lives. Regarding the Investment Return on housing over time, I'm curious what time horizon you are using? I'm on the West coast of Canada which is one region where, depending on time horizon, the rate of return could be argued to be at least 15%-20% PA (with a shorter time horizon, i.e. 5-years, though not so much over the past year). Not saying those are reasonable returns to expect, but the selected time horizon does have an impact. I'm guessing the time horizon used in the video may be around at least 25-30 years?

For buying a house, I think the best advice I have heard is you need to have an emergency fund + a down payment. If you don't have these, you can't afford to buy a house. Also, it is recommended that you are out of debt before your buy a house. By logical extension, if you can't afford to buy a house, you can't afford to buy furniture, or other household items. If you can't afford a house, then you need to increase your income until you can. Also, roommates are away to increase your income.

Why do you guys keep comparing buying a house to an investment . You need somewhere to live whether you’re rich or poor. The real way to decide is to first understand that your housing needs are based on how long you plan on living. Do you plan on living outdoors a part of your life or all of it indoors. Ok got that figured out. Now when do you plan on dying next year , 5 years , 10 years or 40 years. Ok got that figured so you confess that you need a place for 40 years or so with a roof. Now find the most cost effective way of achieving that and it’s not renting. $30,000 rent a year for 40 years is 1.2million not counting inflation.

I live on the coast and people are renting out a shed in their backyard for $1500 or 1 bed 1 bath for $1800. It was cheaper for us to buy a place even with costs of maintenance. However everyone’s situation is different.

I think you fail to give enough weight to the leverage realestate provides. With a 20% deposit you can leverage $100,000 into q $500,000 asset at an interest rate of say 4 - 5%. Now if this appreciates at 6% pa. And you continue to pay down the underlying over time, you see much more appreciation at 6%pa on $500,000 than 10% pa. on $100,000 as with the S&P500. You end up with ~2.5million dollars in equity on the house and ~400k equity in the S&P over a 30 year period respectively. Obviously there are more factors at play including interest, but home equity compounds while interest on your home loan does not

It is better to buy in all situations. Period. Being an owner means no matter the state of the property it retains its value, while renting is throwing money away. You'll be paying rent in the form of taxes, which you'd be paying anyway. It is always better to own if you can own, even if it's a tiny house. It retains equity, it can be rented out, or later developed to increase value even more. Do not rent, it's a scam. There are more empty houses than there are homeless people in America.

This is weird. Rent is an absolute 100% loss. Are you trying to inform on, rent, buying or invest. This feels like an all-in-1 restaurant that does everything bad. It is case of rent because you have no choice and buy as soon as you can. The 5% who don't have to do this in that order are gentrified wealth from family. Investing is on odd thing being pedalled, small gains but risk losing everything that nobodyever mentions and it's very disingenuous. Rent, mortgage (not bought until fully paid off likely in old age). Invest small if you must, which is about everybody maximum ceiling because why risk losing small gains in a savings account where you only ever lose the interest costs and tases in your interest gains. None of us have purchasing power unless gentrified wealth.

All of this is all very midwit tier analysis. I’m not searching “how to afford a house,” because I can’t do arithmetic. I’m searching that because, according to various rules of thumb I will never be able to purchase a house and am looking for creative solutions.

These rent calculations are way off. Most people are getting taxed at between 30 and 40 percent, so spending 50% on rent leaves you with 10%. This is insane. You will develop a nutrition deficiency. Do not do this. Do 50% of take-home pay.

Who said you have to get a mortgage? I’ve never paid rent in my life and I don’t pay for housing out of my job. I have Several houses as a landlord so I don’t have housing cost . So the only thing I calculate is taxes because that’s the only thing that matters. The income from the tenants covers all expenses. The only calculation that matters is taxes more than rent? In most cases no unless your taxes are 40,000year. That calculation of investment to rent is if you plan on dying soon. How do you compare $0 to 25,000-40,000 year renting? I still have a job so I can invest 2500 a month because I have no housing cost. I work for money so everything I do has to count. I don’t live in high cost areas because that’s stupid. I will just wait until I’m a millionaire from living in a low cost area. My house is 25% of my income.

yea this thinking is kinda dumb, you dont get anything out of your house until you sell it.... in which you will need to purchase a place now since you just sold the place you lived in, a personal living dwelling is not an investment unless you are renting a room or something along those lines

Lmao my parents bought a 3 family house in 2007 a year before the market crash for 420k. Today that house is worth 1.1M paid off and most of it due to the 2 tenants that where renting the 2 floors above us. It is absolutely a good investment if you arent an idiot.
